Walpole Middle School Girl's Soccer "unofficial" training has begun! We'll go through Thursday 08/22 and have a Friday morning "fitness" focused session!
This is NOT mandatory but HIGHLY encouraged. Games usually start up with not nearly enough practice time, so this will be important.
We will have one additional optional practice next Monday, 08/27. Our official practices will start on Wednesday, 08/28, at 3:30 and end at 5:00.
The training will consist of a warm-up integrated with short skills sessions and about 45 minutes of small-sided games (3v3, 4v4). If skills need to be focused more, this will be adjusted.
I hope to see a lot of girls out there, though I realize this is last minute, so there's no pressure. We're just going to have fun and get re-acquainted with having a ball at our feet.
The girls should wear cleats, shin guards, and socks so the touches they get during "practice" are similar to those they get during a game.
Don't forget to sign up with the school and remember that your athletes need annual physicals:
