Re:Women's Premier League? - 2008/05/14 12:59
if a short term women's league was set up to encourage more women to play, without asking for a major commitment, i think more women would come out. it could be held on a night other then league (tues or thurs) and possibly do 30-40 minutes of skills to help people improve, followed by an hour long game. i think that in offering a bit of a skill session first, in a women only environment, we'll entice a few more beginners to come out. experienced players would be called upon to share their skill and help the women in WA develop overall.
i'm also keen on doing semi-regular HAT tourney's on a sunday afternoon. possibly once a month. 2-3 games of 40 mins or something short like that. it'll get people out on the field and give some girls a bit of experience in tournament play, which is ultimately what we need for nationals.
the other thing i would love to see happen is get the extremely skilled experienced women in WA to help out with some training sessions for the less skilled. could be a one off training session on a saturday afternoon or something like that. spend 3 hours with girls who've been playing a long time and have so much knowledge to share. could be as simple as improving your throws, to field sense and position, to defensive tactics. anything they've learned over the years that would help us improve our game.
i think it's high time that skilled women ulti players in WA share the love and help newbies reach higher levels!
