Before each match, I would remind the drivers to concentrate, react to the open trailers quickly, BUT make sure the shot was lined up before shooting the balls.

This was a constant point of pre-match discussion and improvement on driving strategy...who says shoot the coach, driver, or does the shooter decide for himself?

Its was funny, at our first district event, I was yelling shoot, shoot, and he did, only we were not in proper position to score. Needless to say my drivers were not happy with me yelling shoot all match long.

By the end of the season the drivers just knew when to shoot and when not too without even communicating to each other.
