Night Training 31082010

Another night training session! Really awesome time to brush up on skills.

Today we all practised stern turns, I think I'm more confident already but still my turn is not as complete and smooth and successful as I'd like it to be. And I tried doing the other side once, EPIC FAIL.

Meanwhile Gene and Stanley (THANKS GUYS!) also helped us with ball shielding. I realised I'm really afraid of people hand-tackling me. I think it's because I don't like feeling wet+my specs will shift when there's a current and the lenses will fog up. Annoying. I will try to shield better by doing stern turn earlier so that we can change direction and face the free space instead of being pushed to a corner when turning around slowly or aimlessly, placing the ball behind my arm before doing the turn to keep possession, and SPRINT HARD WHEN THERE'S AN OPENING. Gosh that would save everyone like three million kJ of energy or something. Must work on it!

JIAYOU GIRLS :D

Lastly I'd like to thank Gene/his dad/the 4 other girls who got a lift for accommodating the smelly and wet Mag in the car! Thanks yeah :)
