COACHING QUOTE - Rick Charlesworth ex Coach Australian Hockeyroos

" ....whatever the game the tendency towards greater versatility in
players has been evident over the last decades.....for the Hockeyroos
the message was a clear one they should look at versatility as an
asset that could make them indispensable to the team. Players had to
be used to playing left and right side, and should delelop attacking
and defensive skills......"

EXTRACT FROM RLCM BOOK 10 printed 1998.

SPRINT TRAINING

By Lester Eiser B.Arts, B.Econ, B.Ed.St, Grad Dip Ed Admin
Level 2 Rugby League Sports Medicine Strength and Conditioning
Level 1 in Atheletics


Assisted running or overspeed training aims to increase the stride
rate and stride length by forcing the player to run at a much higher
level than the player can do without assistance.

In overspeed training, the player is getting his nervous and muscular
systems used to higher speed.

Guidelines
Warm Up
- slow jog 400-1000 metres
- faster jog (same distance as above)
- 3/4 speed striding for 300-400 metres
- stretch 8-10 mins
- walk, jog, sprint cycles for 20 metres each over a lap of the oval
- Do the work on a soft grassy area
- Expect some residual muscle soreness for two days after a session
- Do overspeed training at the beginning of a session while the
player is fresh
- Plenty of rest periods
- Stress only quality work
- Progress slowly and be patient
- Inspect equipment before use for tears in the rubber
- Maintain strict discipline

Types of Overspeed Training
- Down hill sprinting
- High speed cycling
- Towing using rubber harness
- High speed treadmill sprint training

Some of these have cost factors and may not be possible for football
teams with limited budgets. Probably the best for a training session
would be downhill sprinting and harness towing.

Down Hill Sprinting
This should be done on a slope of no more than three degrees-for
example on the football oval from the centre to the side lines if the
oval is cambered for drainage.
There must not be any braking effect or change in sprinting style
because the slope is too excessive. The ideal surface would allow a
20 metre sprint on a flat area followed by a 20 metre sprint downhill
slope of three degrees and followed by a 20 metre flat area
sprint............MORE
