Coach Tierney said his 2015 scout team was the most talented scout team Denver ever has had[1]
Will actively rotate first offensive set between attack and midfield
Berg said Denver has close to 70-80 plays, if include man-up[2]
There will be main sets, but Denver will change the sets for specific teams
Tierney says Canadian kids on his roster come back from the summer banged up after competing for annual Minto Cup
Brown in a Feb. 2015 article: "If a team doesn't want to slide and is slow to go, then you probably want to play in the middle of the field. You have a better angle to turn the corner and get your hands free. It might be more of a dodge-to-score day than a ball-movement and assisted goal day."[3]
First attack unit (started 1st game; attack and midfield; will rotate)[edit]
