The Word "FUN"
The word fun means different things to different people, and in different situations. To players unused to discipline or hard work, fun may involve having loose, unstructured practices in which players are largely free to do as they wish, including not practicing at all unless the mood strikes them.
To other players - those who have been properly conditioned psychologically - fun is a sense of enjoyment and personal satisfaction derived from improving skills, indulging in competitive drills and scrimmages, and pursuing team goals.
The prudent coach will stress this latter kind of thinking among his or her players.
