LADIES PRE SEASON TRAINING
Posted by Jane Jones on 21 July 2017
Hi everyone
Welcome to the 2017/18 hockey season!
Pre-season training begins on Wednesday 2nd August. As many Club members are away during August these sessions are fairly informal, although we will be doing some skill work, and they are for all Club members.
Training Times:
August: Fun and Fitness in the Park at 7.15pm. Hockey session 8-9pm for all Club members
September:
7-8pm: 3rd team and Badgers team training. Please be there at 6.55pm to register so we can start the session at 7pm promptly
8-8.30pm: Skills for all Club Members. Players from the 7-8pm session are encouraged to stay for the skills. 1st and 2nd team members are asked to arrive at 7.50pm to warm up ready for the 8pm session.
8.30-9.30pm: 1st and 2nd team training.
Goalkeeping training:
7.15 – 8pm: Specific goalie coaching. To arrive at 7pm to kit up. Goalkeepers are welcome to stay until 8.30pm and be incorporated into the skills session.
We recently had a coaches/captains meeting to plan the coaching sessions and discuss the teams for the coming season. At present we appear to have a good number of players for the season so the Captains will be following the Club Selection policy when organising the teams. (see attached policy)
The Captains and Coaches will be assessing players on ability, team play, coachability and attitude. We would also like to support players who want to improve their game so please ask if you would like any help or guidance.
Looking forward to an exciting and enjoyable season
Sophie, Emma and Jane
