First training session
So, Witney’s first preseason session was a relative success. Ran by me, the guys did some light drills, followed by a few pick-up games.
A solid 22 turned up, from all backgrounds, with a wide range of levels and futures.
The next couple of sessions will be similar, in that we will get everyone back in to the swing of things gently. But by September, the squad will be trimmed and we will be looking at putting out upto 15 registered members.
Registration forms are available from me, at training sessions, so don’t forget to ask if you want to sign up!
Buy remember, filling out a registration form will not guarantee a place in the squad, as the 12-15 members will be put through their paces to be par of the squad. That is the big word, squad. We have had a few outstanding individuals over the years but mainly have failed to play as a team, and the team is going to be the main concentration in this coming season.
So, a nice session, and thankyou to all that came. We look forward to seeing some old, and some new faces next week!
Owen.
