Just like the FA Cup draw balls, this morning we disinfected our balls and football retuned to Plaistow Rd and so did the rain.
We held 2 sessions of 2 groups of 4 in each lasting 45 mins so that players could leave before others arrived.
Andy ran the fitness drills putting players through their paces and they rotated on to close touch skills session. Marco was by far the standout player for his Samba skills on the Toe toe Brazil style skill in the first session and Jody was getting the hang of it by the end of the 2nd. We then moved to 2 drills building on decision making, passing and smashing the ball into the back of the net or the woods if they missed.
In spite of the rain it was great to be back and see the players again.
