'''Step 1: Before Practice'''

Infiltrate a few players and tell them to make provocative calls during the practice. 

'''Step 2: Before Play'''

Before you start playing, explain to your team that the focus of today's practice is not to react immediately to a call, but to stay calm.

How can we do that? Every time a call happens, do not say anything immediately, but:

# take a deep breath
# count out loud to three (maybe even as a team)

'''Important:'''

What your players do not know:

→ Before the training, you selected a few players and told them to make provocative calls, regardless of the situation — even if they are wrong.

The goal is to challenge your players a bit and observe:

* how they react
* whether they focus on their breathing
* whether they actually apply the exercise

'''Step 3: During Practice''' 

Observe how the game develops — and enjoy it. 

'''Step 4: After Practice '''

* Afterwards, come together in a Spirit Circle and talk about the experience. 
* Give everyone space to speak. 
* Then explain the setup and reflect together.
