Inside Golf
BY CHESTER HORIZON

In this fiat swing the player
must he careful about the ten
dency to lift the club up during
the back swing. There is no lift
ing the club mt all in the cor
rect back swing. The club simply
slides UP as If showed. because it
has nowhere else to go.
Starting the club back "inside
the lfne,' the tendency should be
to try to reach the right knee
with the left hand. That forces
the left shoulder down some. where
1t should be. This movement must
be within reason, hOWeNer-neyer
exaggerated. If the reach toward
the right knee il exaggerated the
left shoulder will drop too low.

Teamwork between the guards
may be developed by mutual un-
derstanding relative to the duties
each is to perform.
Some teams play four-man Of
tense and a defensive guard in his
usual position, to protect the bas-
ket. The defensive guard is fespon-
sible primarily for his own oppo-
nent, but he should be able to take
care of any offensive player who
comes into his territory. When both
guards cooperate in the offense,
one must stay back while the other
goes down the court" Teamwork
in this particular can be adjusted as
follows: Ii the right guard inter
cepts the ball he enters into the
offense. This is the cue for the left
guard to assume a defensive posi-
ton. If one guard advances beyond
the center of the floor, the other
guard must stay back to protect the
goal.
