Gary Stevens coaches the Under 8's
27 Feb 2006
It was a cold but dry morning at Bayham where I had the pleasure of working with the best part of 20 players from Barry McCormack’s Under 8 year group. Everyone was on time, had remembered to bring their water bottle and had shin pads. What a professional group of players!
We had a good warm up with every player working with his own football before moving onto some dribbling skills, passing and running with the ball.
We had a short drinks break and then continued with the emphasis on weight and accuracy of pass and also lifting our heads to see what was around us as we dribbled and ran with the ball.
The session ended with a small sided game, of good quality, and a good warm down before departing.
My congratulations, for their hard work and application, goes to the following boys who attended: Andrew McCormack, Thomas Mitcheson, Ben Hunt, Henry Golder, Freddie Whip, Josef Wolf, James Pancaldi, Jake Pugh, Reece Beanie, Oliver Marden, Jamie Russel, Sam Sinclare, Frasor Cressall, Tom Burgess Marcus and Harding Dominic White.
And my thanks to all the Mum’s, Dad’s and Coaches who braved the cold wind.
