U12 2011

After our tryouts several players were asked to work on their endurance and were asked to do 5Km runs. This is extremely important and not optional. Several players are below optimal fitness conditions, and all can use improvements in speed and endurance.

All players are invited to use the form below to register their runs. You do not need to start with 5Km right away, you can start with an easy 3K run and increase from there.

5Km runs can be done in any manner, and need not be fast. However, we suggest that they are done in interval training mode, alternating fast sprints with slower jogs. For example, 200m fast, 800 slow. Long runs per se are counterproductive to soccer speed.

3/4 of a victory is simply being fitter than the other team.


Remember: FITTER PLAYERS GET MORE PLAYING TIME
