For testing before preseason practices started this year we changed it up a bit. We started with broad jumps and moved on to push-ups and finally got to the shuttle sprints, which we were most nervous about. The broad jumping wasn't too bad at all, it was the push-ups and sprints that made us sore. We had to do as many push-ups in one minute as possible, and for one to be counted we had to touch our chests to a partner's fist. Jennifer outdid everyone with an insane 39 push-ups! Once the sprints were over we were all glad to finally get to practice.
We started our two-a-days after testing so we could get ready for our scrimmage against Montevallo and prepare for our first matches in the BSC Hilltop Classic this weekend! I feel like our preseason this year was way more fun than last year's-maybe because I knew what to expect, or maybe because our team is so incredibly awesome! We also got to work some clinics at Birmingham area YMCA's and worked on a Habitat for Humanity house, as well as supporting awareness for the ALS Walk in Huntsville. I am really happy with what we've done so far and can't wait to get back to playing again!
