KIFH Stickin Together

There were 30 or so girls in all today. The team started out with stretches followed by some strength building. He then had the girls do a 15 lap run though they ran the long route around both fields to cut it to 7. The team is getting more fit. Over half of the team finished as a group. Fewer girls are stopping from tightness or cramping.

While the girls were running the coaches tried to sort out the goalie gear. The mix matched and missing gear has them worried they will not have a decent complete set for practice or games.

The coaches seem very confident about the teams’ prospects this year. They only lost a couple of seniors last year leaving the core of the team intact.

The field is both slow and messy due to grounds maintenance and rain. The sand and aeration plugs are sure to affect play for awhile. The kids are caked with sand and grass after running through it.

Good luck at tryouts tomorrow.
