STAY NEAR THE RACK WHEN PLAYING DEFENSE!

Especially when defending two cappers.

Minimize your movement - stay between the cappers and the rack. Don't chase them to where they pick up ringers - their partners can sneak around you.

Face your opposition - push them away. Don't let them reach over you.

Don't wait too long to get back and deploy ramps.
