Hello everyone. As a father, and coach, I invited my daughters' 6th grade soccer friends to play YMCA basketball during their offseason. It took some selling, none had ever played b-ball previously, but the parents loved the idea of keeping the girls together and trying something new. I've taught all the fundamentals; (previous varsity 9-12 girls coaching experience). I keep everything very KISS, and the girls have improved well and are really enjoying this new sport. My problem is, we have yet to win a game, at 0-7, we don't get killed, and some are close, but how can we get to the next step, win. We will play these same teams again after Christmas and I'm looking for some advice. I run a 2-3 zone, (KISS) and a 1-3-1 offense. We don't run any plays since they have enough trouble just setting screens, and moving. I have 9 guards and only 1 girl of height. Rebounding is one problem, after someone shoots, they just stand there. Also, they don't react to passes very well, again, just stand there. They are not physical either, since soccer teaches them "hands off". It's been a trial, but again, I'm just looking for some advice. beadlecoach
