Watch as Coach explains, and players demonstrate a defender's strike zone. The proper strike zone aiming point is from the belly to the hips. Many times, a defender will be tall with their hands on the shoulders which leads to the hands sliding up to the helmet and they have no strength. If the defender controls the opponent's hips, they win and if not, they lose. Coach shows a drill emphasizing proper strike position and taking proper angles.
