Nursery Training 13/08/2013
A cold chill filled the air in Aras an Tochar last night, gentle reminder that autumn is very fast approaching, as the under 6’s boys and girls took to the field. After missing a few weeks it was remarkable to see how the fitness and skills levels of the team have really improved. At dedicated bunch togged out and gave the session 110%.
Shay and Stephen put the group through a very tough warm up, where their agility and stamina really shone through. Speed trials and catch/ chases certainly warmed up the entire team. The Group was then split into two, Tommy and Sorcha took the older group who focused on important skills including point kicking, fist passing and learning about respect for the coaches and listening skills. Shay and Stephen along with help of dedicated parents worked on exercises which will help develop the basic skills of the game, punt kicking, hand passing, bounce. The hour flew past and the chill was replaced by laughter and enjoyment from each of the players. Another successful session completed.
