Lost Old Dad Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 Staying in touch with their players? How about calling them to let them know they are still considered part of a TEAM! While they have to remain isolated there is things they could be doing. How about lifting weights? Does not have to be commercial weights. It can be something as simple as say 500 reps of lifting a gallon of water in one of those empty bleach bottles. How about a one or two mile run a day. How about a second one with your school backpack with a few books or a 25 pound bag of sand or dirt in it? Thing is there IS things players and Coaches can be doing during this time besides sitting on their......ah........tails and watching re-run after re-runs of Harry Potter! Coaches even if you haven't called your players, have you even talked to your staff?!?! Success comes from prior planning and hard work NOW!

olhickory Posted March 27, 2020 Report Share Posted March 27, 2020 LOD, I know Anderson County and several other programs have used their social media sites to post body weight exercises, and lifting programs for their players . The strength coach post new lifts each day. I have seen them post several threads as well where they are communicating through team apps to give instruction, videos, and encouragement to the team. The players have responded well with video post of their lifts and conditioning. I have heard the coaches are zoom meeting as well, and contacting their coaching connections to learn as much as they can and send out Hudl links for our kids. You are correct in that this is a time to be working. Let's all keep praying that this thing goes away quick , (April 27), so that we can get spring ball in.
