There are females coaching boys teams. I'm sure the girls will figure out what a "man-to-man" defense is.I love it when people get hired with NO girls coaching experience straight from the men's game. or I could mean that there were no good applicants.
what experience do you need with girls?I love it when people get hired with NO girls coaching experience straight from the men's game. or I could mean that there were no good applicants.
There are some different rules to girls basketball not many but slight differences. The philosophy to a girls game is also different from the boys game. Boys a lot of teams are shooting 3s while in girls unless you got a great shooter, it is punch it in from the block or drive it in.what experience do you need with girls?
coaching girls and boys are two completely different games imho.what experience do you need with girls?
Since the Bruce-Mahoney competition is now in play on the girls' side, beating SI will have more meaning as well.Yes thats a lot of generalizing going on here. Fact is whether its boys or girls, this is high school hoops. There is no Im just joining the team to have something on my college application. The kids on both sides are on the teams because they can play (ahem, except for the occasion when the football player, makes the basketball team because of his name/jock status and takes away a spot from a better basketball player than he is)...
Jackson wasn't their prime choice, however you can best believe he will get the most out of his team. There are no more league titles until the monopoly gets broken up. Everyone knows that. Until then best case for SH is always a D3 CCS title and Nor Cals appearance.
girls shoot too many 3s now a days as well. not many differences, especially in high school. you gotta limit turnovers, cause turnovers and finish at the rim. everything else is the same. well girls can get emotional but they will run through the wall for you. boys think they know it all and think they are kyrie or harden. parents for both genders are delusional. he will be okThere are some different rules to girls basketball not many but slight differences.

where did the other coach go?y'all are making a lot of generalizations about a coach most of you know nothing about. If the guy knows the game and treats the kids with respect then the rest can be figured out as time goes. I see no problem with hiring a "boys" coach as long he was the right candidate.
No one here batted an eye when wade nakamura was recently named the boys coach at monta vista.. same differences just going in the opposite direction.. should we be concerned? Is it different because he is a man? How will he ever be able to adjust to so much testosterone in the gym... smh...
good luck to demetrius. SHC being good is good for bay area basketball and I love watching them compete when they come to my neck of the woods. I'll be rooting for him

I have zero insight on what happened over there besides that Wade is the new coach. And I believe Clay is right that his son is on the team, but does not negate the fact that everyone has had nothing negative to say about his switching to the boys side so why is it a negative in this case?where did the other coach go?
I've coached both on the boys Varsity players and girls Varsity players and there are some minor differences, but nothing that can't be figured out. Team chemistry seemed even more important on the girls side. Also, many of the boys have an overconfidence in their skill set and bad habits, which can make it harder to correct. On the girls side, I felt that there was more time in building them up and instilling confidence. For decent to great high school teams, the girls game can be an absolute physical ground war, while the boys seem to regard rebounding as a battle of the tallest and highest leapers. Both sides were enjoyable to coach, for some different reasons and many of the same reasons.coaching girls and boys are two completely different games imho.
monte vista in danville or the other one. not sure what city it is in.I have zero insight on what happened over there besides that Wade is the new coach.

I am not saying that girls do not shoot 3s and I definitely know they do but the philosophical approach to the game is fundamentally different. Most boys games focus on jump shots snd especially with the advent of “Curryball” as I will call it a lot more 3 pointers are attempted now in boys basketball than when I was watching as a high school kid in the 90s.girls shoot too many 3s now a days as well. not many differences, especially in high school. you gotta limit turnovers, cause turnovers and finish at the rim. everything else is the same. well girls can get emotional but they will run through the wall for you. boys think they know it all and think they are kyrie or harden. parents for both genders are delusional. he will be ok
It could be said that for many years there was no place to go for girls after high school, then the NCAA blossomed and the eventual creation of the many women’s leagues internationally and finally the WNBA totally changed the approach to high school girls basketball. Now girls have somewhere to aspire to go and a goal to set and achievebwhereas boy always had what the girls never had a chance to move to the next level.I've coached both on the boys Varsity players and girls Varsity players and there are some minor differences, but nothing that can't be figured out.

Stanford has had womens' hoops at least since the 1890's.It could be said that for many years there was no place to go for girls after high school, then the NCAA blossomed and the eventual creation of the many women’s leagues internationally and finally the WNBA totally changed the approach to high school girls basketball.

girls shoot more because they are often afraid to go to the basket. every team in the bay area def think they are the warriors. boys and girls. 3 or the key became a thing maybe about 12 years ago. that was before the warrior craze for sure.I am not saying that girls do not shoot 3s and I definitely know they do but the philosophical approach to the game is fundamentally different.

Monte Vista is in Danville. Wade’s kid is at Monta Vista, which is in Cupertino.monte vista in danville or the other one. not sure what city it is in.
And you probably also played a very different game than is played todayTitle IX introduced girls' sports at the high school level in 1971. When I graduated from Acalanes in 1966, girls' sports was one day a year. It was called GAA.
Now, a high-level professional female basketball player can make literally millions before age 35, and most D-1 players can play overseas at some level if they want to. (In fact, almost any female American college basketball player can play overseas, but she might spend a lot of her time coaching young kids as well as playing in the local leagues.)
Which ties in neatly to the discussion of three-pointers. The ability to shoot threes is crucial to any post-collegiate basketball career. Americans are brought overseas to score -- they can always find a local to defend and take charges.
