Notes: Sorry for slow update. Been really involved in writing wrestling fics lately.

Duck Games

It was Sunday. Adam had called the extra practice since the final conference game was Friday. If they won Friday, they'd have the conference title cinched. Adam had a surprise for the team. He had called some friends to visit.

They were doing their laps when the former Ducks arrived. Adam blew his whistle. "Bring it in." He called. "I'd like you to meet a few friends of mine. This is Dwayne Robertson, Dean Portman, Fulton Reed, and Connie Germaine. They used to play here. They are here to give you some advice."

Adam knew his players would have rather wanted to meet Guy Germaine and Charlie since they were pro players but he was sure they wouldn't mind too much. Parker and Erica were setting cartons of eggs on the ice. Connie had suggested it. They were going to learn all the Duck tricks since they were the Eden Hall Ducks.

"Eggs?" Harry Masters asked.

"Yep. Soft hands." Connie said. "It's something Bombay had us do. It helped."

The team looked at the adults as if they had completely lost their minds. "It's true." Fulton said.

They tried the soft hands technique. Luckily, they were hard-boiled eggs. The school would have freaked if they used raw eggs. But it still made a mess. Parker and Erika chased after the eggs that escaped.

"Hey Adam!" Portman called from where he was standing. Adam skated over. "You sure about the rope one?"

"They said they wanted to learn all the duck tricks." Adam said with a shrug. I just never told them what they were."

"If you say so." Portman said picking up the rope.

Adam had his players huddle together. "This next one is for teamwork. To win you have to play as one. Dean and Fulton will tie you all in a group."

There were many protests about it. The most vocal one was Bret. But they had to skate together and had gotten it after several attempts. Then Adam decided to end it with the help of Dwayne. An old fashioned Duck round up.

After practice ended Adam watched his players go to the locker rooms. "That was insane." Portman said. "You think it'll work?"

"It's motivating them. I think I heard Marcia say something about looking in papers for tryouts for you Adam. She's the one on crutches right?" Adam nodded. Better watch out." Connie said.

"I'm a man of my word. I doubt I'll make the team but I'll try out anyway because I promised because I know they'll make state."
