So in today’s post I want to get up to date with what is going on throughout the team so far in the offseason. Thus far, we have been doing pretty well with our offseason training. As a team we are all working out on Monday and Wednesday mornings with a lady named Joanne to focus on strength and conditioning. Although it is very early in the morning, we are all enjoying our good workouts. Joanne focuses on things such as speed, agility, balance, and an excessive amount of core strengthening.
Along with morning workouts with Joanne, we also have indoor practices led by our newly assigned captains on Sunday nights for a few hours. Our new captains are Leah Pocoroba, Sam Bean, and Shelley Gibney; they have our Sunday workouts very organized. During these training sessions, the team is broken up into 3 teams and we constantly rotate in small-sided pick up games. In these games it is important that we focus on our individual touches on the ball, along with working together as a team to keep possession. Most importantly our Sunday practices are focused on keeping a positive and fun overall attitude throughout the team. After coming off a season that we all dealt with excessive drama on the team, our new captains are doing everything that they can to keep an optimistic outlook on next season.
The last thing that we are all involved in so far in the offseason is our preparation for our trip to Costa Rica this summer. We are in the process of fundraising to finalize everything for the trip. My next post will focus more on what Costa Rica will offer J !
