You’d think it was closer to round 1, but no, it’s still very early days in pre-season and for the first time since the women reformed in 1994, this group commenced training in January along with the Premier League & Reserves squad. As a supporting partner of This Girl Can VIC campaign this group of ladies show exactly how it’s done.
Led by our Pennant A coach Laura Anderson and supported by pennant coaches Tahlia Sleep and Phylicia Taylor, they are creating a wonderful positive vibe around the group. Training consists of team building tasks, games, hockey skills, challenges and a range of activities that are suited for every level of fitness and skill.
Everyone is welcome, everyone is included, everyone is laughing and everyone feels like they have gained more out of the sessions than just a workout. The first session a collection of tinned food was used during training in a weight bearing activity and then donated to the the bush-fire relief. Rumor has it if numbers surpass 30 next week, the coaches are doing a Kath & Kim rendition.
