There were clearly a lot of good players on the field,

so I'm saying everybody was the best player.

I can say a lot of players that weren't good,

but I think that I'll save that for the next debrief.

Because, you know, start positive and positive.

The debrief essentially is a concept that comes from the US Women's Ash team.

Why is it the debrief because the sports site came in

before 2019 World Cup, and we were figuring out

those last percentages of how we are going to win a World Cup. What could we do

that no other team was going to be doing? And essentially what we would do is we would

go out on the field for 90 plus minutes

and we would come back in, win loser tie,

whatever it is, we came back in as a team,

we sat down in the locker room and we debriefed.

What did that look like?

That looked like everybody just getting out all of their energy on their past game, their emotions, their feelings, holding each other accountable, whether it was good, bad, the ugly, it was a time to just expel all of our feelings about the game.

And then essentially, we would wipe our hands and we would say onto the next game.

Doing it collectively as a team was a game changer and it completely unlocked

and ability to really move through tournaments in a really positive way. So essentially we took this concept

and we put it into the show called The De Brief. I'm going to be

watching a game every single week and then I'm just going to expel all my feelings

about the game and what better matchup to do it than the Cascadia rivalry.
