Squad 6.0,
 
Happy Easter Sunday.  I hope this email finds you spending quality time with your family.  It is one of the most defining moments in the history of the world.  Today we can say together, He is Risen!
 
Last week was another step forward in this season.  I am so pleased with how our skills are progressing.  I think the upside of this team, just like we talked about at the beginning of the season, is so high.  We can grow this program from JV.  Unfortunately, we have some business to handle Monday before practice.  
 
Do not be late to this team meeting.
 
This is a huge week.  This week we look at three tough conference opponents.  We need to be together as one unit.  We need all of the players on this team if we are to come away with success in each of our tilts this week.  Please be ready for a tough practice tomorrow.  Bring plenty of water.  Have a great rest of your weekend, I'll see you soon.
 
Best Regards,
Coach Zim

Squad,
 
Last week was a tough week.  First week after spring break, only one game, game was later in the week, etc.  We cannot use those excuses.  We are definitely a stronger team than we showed against Gville.  This week is a short week with Easter coming.  We have one practice and then we do battle against Grand Haven.  I want to see the heart of our squad this week.  Saturday's shoot around was a great success in our program.  Having that many people show up made me as a coach and Alumni of this program so proud.  We need to ride that momentum and regain our success one GB at a time.  One shot at a time.  One defensive possession at a time. This week let's all commit to shut the GH team down on all assets of the game.  Let's play lights out, tough body up defense.  Start visualizing your success now squad, we are coming back from this last loss.
 
See you tomorrow!
 
Best Regards,
Coach Zim

------------------------END OF SCHEDULING INFORMATION-----------------------------
 
For the Squad:
 
Men,
This past week was a long and extremely tough test.  I feel like we had a solid week as a team.  I think the number one thing right now that we will be tested on is  just how good we can be.  We installed a TON of offense and had our first experience as a defense acting together.  I am already feeling the overpowering hype of this season.  The excitement really does just flow through this sport.  Each one of us is a superconductor of lax hype set to overcharge.
 
This coming week we will have 3 separate battles with three separate strong willed opponents.  Each will fight to the last whistle, we need to fight that much harder.  Each of these teams this week will bring their own styles of play but I am 100% confident if we play together and hold each other up, we will come out on top.  
 
Let's push ourselves on Monday's scrimmage to really determine just how battle ready we are.  Lets take what we learn Monday and get better on Tuesday during practice.  Then Wednesday and Thursday let's start this season off with success.  Not just winning, but growing in skill together and making the bonds on this team strong.  That will be the key to this season and all of the following seasons you are in this program.  Let's build strong foundations and skills on JV so we can dominate on Varsity.  We will build trust and a brotherhood and it will be so so fun, I guarantee it.
 
Get ready Squad, the season is here.  We are here.  Let's get it!!
 
"Sometimes in battle there comes a time when both sides consider themselves beaten, then he who continues the attack wins." -Ulysses S. Grant 
 
Best Regards,
Coach Zim
