I met the boys today for the first time, spelt a few rules out before we settled into a few one touch & warm up games just to let them know its not all fun. Several players had no problem with tackling on the newly laid plastic surface, some had issues with it( see Harry Redknapp) , one or two the players have already shown me their true positions for next week with some great aggression in the tackle whilst one player merely chose to let the ball do the talking with some delightful distribution whilst staying on one spot in an almost Hoddle like stance( great) and perfect defence splitting passes. Two players have already discussed with me in great passionate & length their desire to be the number one in between the sticks and whilst one is a goalie for his team on the weekend he is slightly small but has some brains and plenty of guts and the other is all guts and no brains but has a more rotund build to him.
I eagerly await Fridays session where i get to meet the remainder of my team before next weeks curtain raising game against Fairmont.
Audere est Facere.
