Set-up

All fit players complete a beep test (20m progressive shuttle). Record level and shuttle reached for each player. Compare aerobic indicators against Monday's 2-mile data. Doubtful players again self-managed.

Coaching points

  • Push to your ceiling — this is about tracking progress, so sandbagging helps nobody.
  • Watch the high-stamina lads (Sowers, Weinheimer) set the standard for the group.
  • Low-stamina players (Curry, Dougherty) — note their levels; it informs substitution planning.

Progressions

  • Post results on a group chart — visible progress motivates and creates healthy competition.
  • Use data to set individual conditioning targets for the final fitness test.
