Day 39

Day 39

Wednesday

We called Daryll Jordan and as we anticipated they said the session was cancelled because of exams.

After a couple hours extra sleep and relaxation it was time to metaphorically set sail and head down the east coast towards The Lodge School... Which I always weirdly call the lounge. Not a clue why.

We arrived with a few minutes to spare however the teacher was their to greet us on arrival to tell us we had made a wasted trip. So annoying! Only one kid had turned up because of the upcoming exam period.

Luckily Aran and Evan's sessions had been cancelled also and the lodge was not too far from them. We called them to see if they were free and whether they wanted to grab a smoothie before we headed to our BCC session at 4:00. Thankfully, they were free and they did want to catch a smoothie! Not a wasted trip after all.

Our BCC session went smoothly, we focused on the art of ball control and dribbling today. We started the session by picking on 3 people. One to do a warm up, one for stretches and one to do a passing drill from our previous session. (This was the homework we had set them). They went very well and Xavier, Reynolds and Amuniki should be proud of themselves. Afterwards, Evan,Aran, Shaz and myself took one session each and focused on the delivery of dribbling sessions. The session went on till around 8:00!

Let's see what tomorrow holds for Shaz and I. Another coaching-free day? We'll soon see!

All the best
