Training 120908

So it's the last official training as CCA stands down for EOY preparation.

Alas... one of the sessions where many (especially the Sec 2s) were mia, for official reasons or otherwise (excuses?). Anyway, the team did 7 sets of circuits - knee lifts (using cones); Mr Lim pointed out various observations (which he did not wish to repeat):

- Landing (after over the cones) should be with forefoot; not flat foot.
- Lift the knee high and run across the cones; not skip or jump sideways.
- Strong swing of the arms by the sides (front and back).
- Maintain a straight, strong posture and look up front; not with tensed up shoulders and/or focusing on the ground.
- This has been emphasized times and again -> punctuality in warming up; need not depend on the vice captains to get the team ready; everyone can be more conscious about starting on time. Collecting of equipment and set up should be a team effort, regardless of level or gender.


That's the "practical" part–training!
Now's the "theory" i.e. academic!
For many of you, there's likely to be quite a lot to catch up; please inform me early if you need help for Mathematics and/or Physics (regardless of level/class).
& bear Mr Lim's words in mind, self train if possible, preferably in small groups with your teammates. It shouldn't take long (~1 hour) if you are focused.

Lunch, followed by consultation with me (while digesting food), then self-training -> Sounds good, doesn't it? =)
