It's nice to see how well it's working. She feels that although the club is starting at the basics it is still moving quickly. The first week of practice they skated. By week two they added sticks and by week three they included pucks in their drills. Even as quickly as it's going, sometimes Sarah Johnson can't wait to learn skills faster.
Equipment arrives . . .
According to Sarah Johnson they play an F-M Women's team and Grand Forks next week. They are also planning to take a couple trips to The Cities to play junior varsity and club teams. The new equipment has really helped during practices and added a new dimension to the way the game is played. It's a totally different game. Although the delay for equipment delayed the start of game scheduling, Johnson said it is helping in one aspect by forcing the club to take more time refining basic skating and stick skills.
