Drill Before Dominion
Golden Army Indoor Facility. Noon. Intensity at full tilt.
The indoor turf vibrated with a tension that wasnât just heat. Overhead lights beat down like suns, casting a molten glare across the golden surfaces. Every step echoed, every movement sharp. The match against Regency 11 approached and Coach wasnât about to let them forget it.
He was already on the pitch.
Black jersey stretched tight across his torso, COACH emblazoned in gold across the chest. Black shorts with gold stripes clung to strong quads. Socks pulled high over shin pads, black with gold banding. A silver whistle hung like authority from his neck, unmoving. His black-and-white cleats bit into turf as he stood unmoved. His cap, worn backwards, made his face unreadable. Silent. Unshakable.
The doors opened.
Wells entered first, as expected. Sweat already beading along his brow. His metallic gold kit gleamedâjersey, shorts, socks, cleats all matching, seamless in shine. âWELLS 58â flickered under the lights as he jogged into formation. Cocky. Loose. Already pushing. Already performing.
Coach didnât speak. Just watched.
Jabril followedâsmaller steps, tighter control. Same gold gear, but it wore differently on him: like armor. Movements deliberate. No wasted motion. He didnât even glance at Coach. But he knew. He knew the man in black was watching.
Then came Trey, all spring and attitude. Gold clung to his frame like it could barely contain the energy. His cleats bounced off the turf before he stopped, smirk cocked. Restless. Ready to impressâor disrupt.
Alton was grounded powerâbroad shoulders beneath shimmering gold, footsteps slow but final. He stood at the edge of formation like a cornerstone. He wasnât trying to be noticed. He didnât have to be.
Kasper arrived last, but his silence cut deeper than any entrance. Same kit, perfect fit. Controlled movements. His eyes scanned the setup with surgical detachment. Precision disguised as indifference.
Coach took one step forward.
Whistle.
"Line."
They fell into formation. Five in gold. One in black. The room shifted. The drill began.
"Touch and move."
Ball movement snapped into motion. Wells moved firstâfast, sharp, slightly off rhythm. Jabril cleaned the pace with every contact. Trey overextended, immediately corrected by Coachâs voice: âContain that fire.â
Altonâs passes thudded solid, firm, accurate. Kasper executed without comment, clean as a blade.
Coach circled them, cleats thudding softly. âTempo.â
The ball spun through them, faster now. Wells gritted teeth. Trey grinned through sweat. Jabril narrowed focus. Alton held pace. Kasper? Still silent.
Coach moved with them. A shadow in black, threading through gold.
âControl.â
Wells stumbled, Coach was on him.
âLower your hips. Youâre not showing off. Youâre building.â
A nod from Wells, eyes flickering down. Corrected.
âAgain.â
The pattern repeated. Then intensified. Drill to sprint. Sprint to footwork. Footwork to recovery. Breaths quickened. Heat rose. Gold clung tighter.
Coachâs voice never rose. Never needed to. Every command hit like weight.
When the whistle finally blew again, they froze. Chests heaving. Jerseys soaked. Socks streaked with turf. The light glinted off every drenched thread of gold.
Coach stood still.
Wells, bent at the knees, looked up. Coach stepped forward. Just a step. No words. Only gaze.
He didnât need to speak.
Wells straightened. No smirk now. Just focus.
One nod passed between them.
It wasnât approval. It was pressure. And Wells was ready to carry it.
Coachâs eyes swept across the field one last time, at Jabrilâs control, Treyâs energy, Altonâs weight, Kasperâs precision. Golden bodies glinting under the lights, gear clinging tight, every one of them impressive in form and function.
He didnât say much. Just a quiet hum in the back of his throat as he turned toward Wells again.
âStrong squad,â he said low, voice coated in something dry and deliberate. âAll of them look good out there. Damn good.â
Then, the pause.
âBut you⌠thereâs something else in you.â
He let it hang in the air, like heat, like pressure, like a test.
âStill figuring it out.â
And with that, Coach turned, put his arm over Wells' shoulder, leading him off the turf and leaving Wells there, golden, sweaty, and burning to know exactly what he meant.
