Is there some other magic drill trick I can use that will teach them, so they do not have to think about it and just do it?
Practice practice practice practice!
I coach mostly 5/6, so the girls are all at the age/developmental stage that they know fully well HOW to point, they just don't always rember to DO it. So I have to admit that my coaching often denigrates to "feet...feeeeeet....FEEEEEET!!!" Followed by my face buried in my hands, telling the girls my eyes hurt too much and I just can't bear to watch anymore.
about 50% of the team have no problems pointing toes... but the other 50% does... and always forget.
is there a drill that everybody uses that I'm aware of? or is it just constant verbal coaching (in a nice way ?

I don't know what they ever said to her or did to her, but DD eats dinner with pointed feet, reads books with pointed feet, watches TV with pointed feet, etc. Makes me smile to look across the room and see her on the couch with a book and her legs straight, feet pointed.
