Day 3

The morning of Day 3 began with the infamous beep test.  The team ran the test in two groups and then focused on 1v1 defending for the remainder of the morning session.  Throughout the training the attacking was clearly superior to the defending.  Individual team defending was identified as an area that the Hornets can improve on from the prior year and will be a major focus for the 2010 campaign.

Tuesday afternoon the focus migrated from defending to attacking.  The team worked on passing, possessing the ball and controlling the speed of play during the day's second session.  A passing warm-up to improve and refine receiving and passing was followed by 3v1 and then 5v2.  In a space a little bit larger than half field the team was broken into two squads and instructed to play possession while working to keep a team shape.  The quality gradually improved before calling it a day. 



Girls are working hard, trainers and coaches trying to keep pace!

GO HORNETS!!!
