On Team Coordination

by Evan

This is why Team Dynasty is the best in the world. Yes, I realize Lang has moved since this was taken, but it still shows a great team effort, mainly by Lang and Fraige. Take a look.

Now that’s just awesome. Talk about coordination, Fraige runs up as a decoy, and immediately Lang is right in the snake without anybody watching! It may look like an accident to the untrained eye, but every move there happened on purpose. Even Lang doing his three man run through, it’s not like he ran blindly down field. This could only happen with great communication on his team’s part.

But like I was saying - coordination. This is still something our team is lacking, and probably not just ours. I think it’s simply going to take a lot of practice to know when you should play off of another teammate’s bump.

For instance, if you team moves into a 50 bunker, such as a snake or maybe a dorito, there’s a good chance that it’s going to lock down the other team until he is taken out. But what good is he doing besides just that if the rest of your team doesn’t move up field and take advantage of their predicament? Not much.

So next time we hit the field we’re going to work on a better offensive coordination, as well individual skill. Our tournament practically turned into a defensive lock down, and it worked fine, but you don’t see the pro teams playing like that too much.
