The first thing I'm doing is having every kid partner up. If there's an odd number of children, then I'm kicking the one kid who's not chosen out of camp, because it's obvious he just isn't a good teammate, and bad teammates have no room in the sport. After this we head out to the parking lot to do oklahoma drills, not only do these build character, but they also weed out the weak minded and the losers, as if a kid refuses to do the drill, or doesn't win against their opponent, then they obviously don't have the mindset to be a champion at any level of the sport, and if you're not trying to win, then what are you playing the game for? After I've weeded out the bottom of the barrel players, we can finally test out their in game skills, you know the usual positional drills, and since the player field is so small at this point, it should be easy to get to every position group that's there.
