CoachG: It was a great first week of practice.  The journey of becoming a great team has begun.  Each player has a role in making the team great. The heat of Aug is like the sword makers furnace.  When making great swords they had to heat the metal so hot that the impurities would come out, so the sword would be strong and infallible in battle.

Team Conditioning

Strength and speed training is an important part of our off season program and the team is doing a great job of getting stronger.  Keep up the great work.

As we get closer to the start of the season it becomes very important to start conditioning the body to run and be in great shape.  Football is short bursts of energy with a rest in between, therefore, we need to condition for 5 second bursts then 20 to 30 second rests.

Conditioning will be done after the strength workout every day.  It will be lead by seniors and coaches.

The conditioning link above has the basic workouts detailed.
