And the Off-Season Begins

This week marked the first three days of the Broughton lacrosse team’s off-season.  As the head coach I am even more excited about getting the boys in shape.  I’ve gotten access to the weight rooms this year too.  I’ve upped the intensity and the boys, so far, seem to be buying in already.  Considering fall sports are still in full swing and winter sports are doing their pre-season workouts, I’ve been happy with the turn out.  I think it will be even better when the fall sports are over.  I have about a dozen boys that play some level of football, half that that run cross country, and even a few that are in the marching band.

With three days in there are only 123 more until the first day of tryouts!

Prepping For 2010

With schools around the country kicking off in the next week or two it’s time for the return of High School athletics.  That means it’s time to start preparing for the next year.  The spring of 2010 will mark my first year has a head coach and I’m pretty excited about it.

I’ve been doing my best to gather all the information I can about scheduling, uniforms, and practice gear.  One thing I’ve learned from my two years as an assistant is that if you need something in February you better get on it no later than October.

I feel by getting a lot of this out of the way now, it will allow me to really focus on off-season training in the fall and pre-season come January!  Plus if everything rolls like I’d like we are going to look sexy this spring!!
