Since I took over this program we have been running double practices for the first week. At the end of the week as a tradition we play and little game of ultimate Frisbee to break up the monotony of our reqular practices. This year we started a new tradition of have a team breakfast after the game to give a bit of reward to the guys for making it through such a tough week. One more practice tonight and a bit of a shorter one tomorrow morning and "Hell Week" comes to an end. Kids have worked very hard and I can't say it enough on how good of a group of kids they are.
Nutrition tip...EAT BREAKFAST every day. Keep that metabolism going through out the day. You need fuel to run a car, you need calories to run your body.
