This week's question is one I answered on Reddit. "I'm currently a goalie in junior year, starting to do things like email coaches trying to get recruited, and a lot of the field players on my team go to clinics like tony Azevedo, or Wolf Wigo's clinics, but these are pretty expensive and I was wondering whether these types of clinics were worth it for goalies to go to, what kind of value can I expect out of them? and would going to a clinic of a college coach help with recruitment? (eg Wigo)" The original post is here.

I'll discuss ways to start talking to your team as a goalie and then focus on what else to say to your team after the basics. I will even walk through an entire defensive possession and what I would say to help you discover what else to say.

The 10, 10, & 10 framework is a way to think about your defensive possession. You're breaking the shot clock into thirds. 10 seconds in the initial change of possession & transition. 10 seconds with the offense in the frontcourt but not fully set up or in their preferred positions. 10 seconds of them really trying to attack the frontcourt for a goal or an ejection. This episode will focus on the main ideas and goals you want to achieve in each section along with some common pitfalls you may encounter.

Harper has this episode's question. "I want to become stronger in my legs, especially my eggbeater, but I find it hard to get pool time, especially on my own.

I'll discuss how I dealt with limited pool time and how I was able to find space, the three categories of dry land workouts I would focus on regardless of pool time, and some other non-water polo suggestions.
