Halftime

*Halftime* Short, hard breaths. Yelling. Re-group. Gatorade. Speech. More Gatorade. Focus. Draw plays. Break down. Run Out. Game time.

Halftime is every player's getaway. Whether you're playing a hell of a game and you need time to regroup, or you're completely out of it and you need to start over. Either way, halftime is beneficial... if you use it right. Every good athlete knows that the start of the 3rd quarter is the start of a new game. The second half can be a completely different story than the first because each team gets another chance to start over with warm legs and a new attitude. Go into halftime with one question: How will we win this game? And every single person on the team must know to give their absolute best effort, not only as an individual, but as a teammate, to finish the game off strong. And that is using halftime to your advantage.
