Dear omggmo812,
So I hear you are having trouble with defense, well I can help. So first of all when you are playing defense your team needs to decide if you are going to play zone, which is when each person guards a specific area. Or man to man, when each player guards a specific person rather than and area. When you are playing defense you should be able to get ahead by running faster than the other team. To run faster you should run more often like maybe take a jog around the neighborhood or on a track. Remember to stay big when you are defending also keep you arms and hands up! If you stay big it will be easier to play defense because the bigger you are the more space you can cover and the more man you can stay on. When keeping your hands up while playing defense, it blocks the player from shooting and in some cases passing so the player could get a five second penalty. Use these tips in a game to keep your defense ROCKING!
