Stretching is not the same as mobility. Stretching lengthens muscle; mobility improves control through range. Both matter.
Pre-game dynamic warm-up
Leg swings, lunges with rotation, arm circles, band pull-aparts. Never static stretch before performing.
Post-game static stretching
Hamstrings, quads, chest, lats, forearm. Hold each for 30 seconds.
Frequently asked questions

Only when done immediately before explosive activity. It's fine and helpful after training.
