What is preseason?
I personally think preseason is a way of getting morale high, when new players come into a team or even with Castleview it’s a way of the new manager or new player to get used to their surroundings. Some players come up to a new club to make an impression, but getting sick at the side of a pitch doesn’t do much for their image.
When the players arrive they might think this is going to be hell or heaven. I never enjoyed preseason because I’m not a huge fan of running! But players need to be at least 75% match fit after training all summer, with preseason games looking after the other 25%. Some managers or coaches want to run players into the ground, I think players should be pushed a little more than normal training to get them back to the level of the season before.
Our season starts this friday, now it is a cup game so we will see if the interrupted preseason helped or not.
