At what age is it okay to start teaching zone defense? Where I coach it is not allowed in any division till they reach 12-13. Just wondering what other groups are doing.

Thanks

Coach Randy

I don't think you should coach zone until the players have the "man to man" down pat. At what age? I guess that's irrelevant because of the rules of your league.
