Coming
into each season and mini camps fit is a must each year. As the game of
soccer has become increasingly more physically demanding so you, as a
player, must adapt to the environment or else risk falling behind. It is
important that you work on your stamina, endurance, quickness and foot
skills outside of training and prior to mini camps.
Below
is a workout schedule for you to follow in January and February and
then in June and July when we generally have some down time at the
Virginia Legacy Soccer Club. The workout will occupy each player for 3 days a
week during the off-season. However, this should not be the only aspect of
soccer that you are engaged in. You should also be playing small-sided
games with friends, shooting and other aspects related to soccer in your
spare time if you really want to get better. The three days can be any
three days during the week but it is advisable to spread the days out.
Each workout should take no more than an hour. Attending Open Play or team
training does not count as one of your three days!
