The drills we did in training today were half on conditioning and half on court playing. I don't think I did as well as I could've today mainly because I was having quite a big stomach ache. During the first half when we were just doing slow exercises it was pretty much ok, but when we got to jumping and spiking, it was getting hard for me because of my stomach ache. My legs and body weren't really functioning as well due to that reason. Many people are getting sick, so I should take care of my health also.
The thing I want to talk about today is, the talk at the end of the practice actually inspired me in some ways. The coach was telling the team about how we do not have enough time left, so we should start working together as a team, and enthusiasm is the thing we need in practice. It let me feel that I should work hard for my place in the team, and also that volleyball cannot be done without 6 players. Teamwork is essential in this sport. The quote of the day for me might be, "Don't wait for tomorrow. Make the most out of today."
Hi Andy,
ReplyDeleteWould you mind clarifying a few things for me?
"First half was pretty much ok, but until we got to jumping, it was getting hard for me."
What did you mean by this? What, in particular, were you having difficulty with?
You mentioned that our talk at the end of practice inspired you "in some ways". Would you mind sharing a bit more about what you found inspiring, or how you were inspired? Inspired to do what? (hehehe, you did say you wanted to talk about it...but your last paragraph was really more of a "mention" rather that a "talk", right? => )
