Pitches were frozen this morning and the lunchtime rain has converted them into something better suited for ice hockey ! Pitches therefore not fit to train on tonight for all groups (and schools tournament also cancelled).

Here is Plan C for this week and what's in place for each coaching group:

The following sessions are cancelled (no indoor session or pitch session
Academy 5.45pm - 7.00pm session (badgers and U16's)
Academy 7.00pm - 8.00pm session (U10’s/U12’s)
Goalkeepers 7.00pm - 8.00pm)
Men’s 2/3’s - 8.15pm - 9.45pm

The following groups will all have alternative sessions with coaches as follows:

Club training (open to any men / women) 7.00pm - 8.00pm – Function room
(Long corner analysis) – Mart Talbot

Mens 1’s training – 8.00pm - 10.00pm -10pm in the function room
(fitness and video analysis) - Albert

Womens 1’s training – 8.00pm - 10.00pm in the committee room
(Meeting and analysis) – Nigel and Mark W

Womens 2/3’s training – 8.15pm - 9.45pm in bar area
(Individual/ small group feedback) - see team whats app messages
Mark T

The forecast is also looking colder for the weekend so all players are reminded to check whats app / pitchero and team messages to keep up to date with captain / managers to confirm if games are going ahead. A club pitch inspection will take place on Saturday morning and we will be in touch with home captains if any doubt about pitches.

If you need a hockey fix or inspiration that a look at the FIH Pro League Preview and take a look at the Spain v GB men's game to see a never give up squad spirit
