Back to Training

This is the first week of training for this semester. It has been tough given that we had a three week break from competitive play and training. The coaches have mostly been concentrating on our speed and lots of running to increase our stamina and prepare for this weekends coming league games.

There are some new players on the team. Some are really good at least this will improve the quality of the team and increase competition among the players for starting positions. My goal this semester is to be on the first 11. To be a constant and consistent start for the remain leg of the season even as we prepare for the KUSA ( Kenya University Sports Association) games.

The new coach played me at center back on Wednesday even though that's not my natural position. Nevertheless we managed to keep a clean sheet. Today we had some core workouts to cover then we divided into teams and played a simulation match. I scored a penalty.

Tomorrows session is more of tactics and game play to prepare for the Saturday game and come up with a team for it. Can't wait to play. Am feeling super energetic and excited.

Next week should be serious running drills. I'll keep you guys posted on how it goes.
