And even if you do it well, it still purports to work.

So at some point, we've got to just have some fundamental movement language where maybe it's jumping, jumping, pause.

And we can, hey, push that knee out, get that foot straighter.

Can you take a breath there?

And then can we constrain?

I would submit that if you and I played spike ball, we would touch a thousand shapes and positions that we could not get in a formal movement practice.

So more of that, and then it becomes a little bit more formal as we start to get into high school, I think.

Like dramatically.

And so that's a thing that we're like, well, who owns that problem?

Well, maybe the parent at home.

And we have to have coaches who are like insisting on this work because, you know, they're like, hey, I want to coach.

Right.

But meanwhile, we have kids who are unprepared to be coached.

In 10 minutes, I would say, you guys need to play a game.

So what games are available?

One of the things we identified with Caroline as a goalie early on, and even in water polo, and this came from their coaches, they said, hey, if you're really interested in your daughters being good at water polo, then you need to do more long toss.

We need to throw a ball.

So we went out and we started throwing a baseball, throwing a softball with a mitt, smaller than a water polo ball.

And we do so much throwing.

And even today, I see women in the pool who cannot throw.
