Start of a new week again, week number 4 how times went so quick since we first came here! I set of at my usual routine at 6.30am, once ready i set off to Phil’s across the road at half past 8 then we head off to school and are already to start by 9 o clock! We eventually get 15 kids turn up half an hour late (1 girl). We started our last session of the channel warm up, followed by ‘cone road’. As followed by some match time. Adrian (Phil’s host) was supervising this class as he always did but came up to me and told me that his girls team who we scrimmage with on a Sunday has a friendly this weekend coming, which i will be taking part in. First proper competitive match since iv come here, looking forward to it!
Afternoon time and the 4 of us were back at St. Leonard’s for our after school session. We took out a warm up of ‘X change’, having them in teams in 4 corners and diagonally crossing the area they would exchange passes, high-fives etc… after this we took them for a ‘first touch’ session leading into crossing over, finished off with a big circle and seeing how many passes they can get in a minute. Finishing the session off completely with matches, first to score stays on.
That night was a quiet one in again, home for dinner and phone call’s home!
