Thanks to all who attended training this week. I really appreciate the efforts made by both players and parents to brave the weather. We had 11 girls out for a run, which was great.
It was always going to be 'iffy', considering the amount of rain we had in the hills on the day, but thankfully it all cleared up for a good session.
We started with a lap of the oval (which in all honesty was only a half-lap!) and then some mild stretches.
Next was group passing and exercises, first in fours and threes, and then twos. We then broke training into two big groups, with Indigo, Claire, Bronte, and I, looking at how we can improve our crosses and set-up for corner kicks, while Deb looked after additional two on two skills training and dribbling/passing fitness.
After an always popular 'monkey-in-the-middle' drill, we played '5 a side', with Indigo in goal for the shirts and Deb in goal for the bibs. Result: MOUNT LOFTY 1 - MOUNT LOFTY 1.
Training Note:
Lead and call hard at set plays. When we're awarded a corner, free kick or throw, no Lofty player should ever be standing still. Drop away, back, and/or wide to provide a passing option for your teammates.
