Day 2 is in the books...more competition, fitness and game night at the Guest House. Players are definitely getting tired and are having to "grind it out" as bodies get sore and the brain wants to stop...but the players are pressing on well.
The morning practice, the team was divided into 4 groups and we played two round-robin tournaments. The first was a two-touch keep away game in a very tight space. And the second was a game with 4 small goals. The orange team of Amanda Sanchez, Lauren Hair, Nicole Cardon, Lauren Porter and Roxy Tebbs finished the session with 5 wins and 1 tie to take the trophy.
We finished with a 15 minutes scrimmage....and then it was 21 minutes of "madness" as we ran at a targeted heart rate during that time.
The team looks like it will be a skillful group and capable of some entertaining soccer.
The afternoon practice was more competition with some keep away and a game with 4 big goals. Lots of good opportunity to improve vision and reading the game!
This evening was game night, highlighted by a great battle in Catch Phrase...a quick-thinking word game....much like the old "Password" TV show.
