## Resource

At just 19 years of age, Elliot Hawkins was named Club Breakout Player of the Year. He led Bravo in goals and assists as a rookie (12G/15A/2D). This offseason he decided to sign with the Indy AlleyCats where he'll get to play with his 2 older brothers. Indy has made a big splash since Coach/GM Nathan Bussberg took the team over. We brought Elliot on to spill the beans on Indy's new leadership and big signings. We also talk about what it's like to be recruited as a free agent as pro ultimate continues to evolve, the mindset shift between pro and club, what motivates players, weighing the importance of spending time being physically present with your teammates, and, of course, we get a little update on our Birdies as they begin their season with eyes on a championship.More from Pod Practice:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/podpractice_podYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@podpractice_podEmail: show@podpracticepod.comUltimate Mobility Membership: https://www.skool.com/ultimate-mobility/about?ref=1ac6179a76464cf892a7347232df540eBuy Tokay Cleats: https://tokay-ultimate.com/podpracticePod Practice Store: https://ko-fi.com/podpractice/shopGreatest Bags: https://www.greatestbag.com/Use promo code: PODPRACTICE10 for 10% off your Greatest Bag OrderPod Practice BE Ultimate Store: https://shop.beultimate.com/collections/pod-practice-podcastDownload The Playbook: https://betterthanever.beultimate.com/the-playbook-infoShop BE Ultimate: https://beultimate.com/Kikko Socks: https://kikkosocks.com/Use discount code: POD15 for 15% off your next order.
