The regular Sunday routine was changed today as only the players who played more than 70 minutes in the game on Friday went to yoga. The rest of the bench and other players who didn’t travel, along with many of the U19 squad had a regular training session this morning. It was good to train, because for me especially, not playing 90 minutes each week in a game can leave me to lack fitness, so the extra opportunity to train was very good for me.

A passing drill, then a few possession grids and a few small sided games, before finishing with sprints. The sprints were certainly a blow after a long session, but all good for the body. Shower and then headed on home. Made a good lunch and relaxed for most of the afternoon.

Wardy arrived home early evening so it was nice to have company again. Time for a good sleep before another big week of training begins.
