So far uncle pete (my friend not my uncle..... its his nickname) has practiced for about a week and has become pretty good at catching and throwing right handed and we're working on catching and throwing left handed hes getting better at ground balls but still needs to work on them. He can cradle prettty good now with the right but really needs help tryin to cradle with the left so if ne one has ne suggestions please post them :bye

What position does he want to play?

I'm assuming hes using a short stick


just play catch with him a lot, practice also around the back passes, catching em (You know, you're running and you catch the ball as its thrown to your back)

I'm thinking I'd like to play midfield .. and yup it's a short stick :)

i recently tried tot each a friend how to play. The best way is at first just get the basics throwing and catching down. If you start off with coplicated stuff it gets confusing or at least it did for my friend. and take it easy on him if it takes a while to get the hang of things, cause you can probably catch a pass in your sleep while for some beginers it takes a while to even stop running away from the ball when you pass it
doesn't mean uncle pete does i just mean some people
