2021 Season

Fitness and Conditioning 

There won’t be a fitness test as part of tryouts BUT there will be a fitness test shortly after. This will allow the coaching staff to see where the girls are from a fitness standpoint and therefore adapt plans as we build towards our first games.  

Fitness Test

I know the two words "fitness test” can cause some anxiety. I don’t believe that fitness tests should be a surprise and players should have all the details beforehand. There should be nothing to STRESS about. Here is the test:

10 x 120 Yard Runs 

Players will have 20 seconds to run 120 yards (Full length of the field)

Players will have 40 seconds to run back 

Players will then rest for 1 minute.

This process will repeat itself 10 times.  

Obviously, the goal is for the players to get down in 20 secs and back in 40 secs (total 1 min) 10 times. Should a player not get back in 20 seconds they will end up with less resting time and this will make the test more difficult. Not getting back in time DOES NOT mean you are eliminated.  

If players have questions about this, they can reach out to Coach Lamb. Again, there should be no stress or anxiety around this, it is simply part of the game. Fitness requires preparation – please prepare.
