First phase of training programme coming to an end

As we come to the end of January, we look forward to the 2nd part of our training programme before our competition season kicks off in March.

Throughout January, we have concentrated on raising core fitness levels – getting our players fit to train/compete.
The emphasis moving forward will be on embedding key movement/technique patterns, so that they become automatic responses.

This will be achieved through extensive drilling of movements and techniques – so the core fitness already done will be important, and will be further built on by the high number of drill repetitions.

Central to our thinking here is the aforementioned “Bounce”, and “The Power of Habit” by Charles Duhigg.
