Halifax 21 Plan – Identify Root Causes • We do lots of drills where marking is a key component but we haven’t taught all of the specifics of marking • Rookies don’t necessarily know • Veterans may have forgotten all the drills we did the last fall where we highlighted influencing open throws or at least are not demonstrating good technique November 15, 2015 Ultimate Canada Conference 2015 -
