Ahh preseason... that first dreaded month before season begins that every soccer girl has a love/hate relationship with. It begins with getting to school weeks before anyone else is even on campus. After that, you are expected to wake up at ungodly hours of the morning to practice. 5:30 in the morning? "I think yes," says coach. But it's not over yet. After breakfast and your morning nap it's time for weights and conditioning around noon. Then you go back, sleep and eat, again, and then have practice all over again in the evening.
Don't get me wrong though, we love preseason. There are parts that we struggle with, but with free meals, sports massages, and team ice baths, it's not all bad. Plus the whole point of preseason is to make us the best team we can possibly be. That way, when it's time for season, we are ready to dominate on the field.
Although, it wouldn't hurt to push that morning practice back a couple of hours.

Yikes, I hate waking up early. Best of luck to you & the rest of the soccer girls for a great season! Go Bods!
