Melbourne training

So what does a week in Melbourne look like, training for Worlds?

Monday
Play Div 1. Do 100 throws or a run/fartlek afterwards. Actually had an icebath this week and my legs felt tops the next day.

Tuesday
Rest day

Wednesday
Worlds training at Albert Park at 7pm. Players from all 6 teams attend (so there are Masters, Juniors, etc there). Weeks alternate between skill sessions and scrimmages (with extras invited). The first scrimmage was last week. We were short on numbers - only 14 - but had a high quality game. 2 minutes of esky for the winners, 2 minutes of exercise for the losing team. My personal focus has been tight guarding, and making layout bids.

After this 90 min session, I do a throwing or fitness session.

Thursday
Fitness session at Albert Park. Has been a HoS session til now, with some women joining in.

Friday
Usually a rest day with travel to Sydney.

Saturday
NUFL, Camp or fitness.

Sunday
NUFL, Camp or team training.
