During the weekend I tried out for the hockey reps that was held all Sunday 16th June. The boys reps trials for U13 was held from 1pm-3pm. First we were split into four teams according to our numbers then had to do a twelve minute run around the hockey field which by estimate was 300m and I did eight point five laps which came to a total of 2.55km. Then our groups were split into doing pushing and hitting, mini games, stick work and dribbling. The group I was in had to do pushing and hitting I tried my best to make all my pushes firm and accurate aswel as my hits but at the end I was called back to do another hit which could be bad or good?
After my last hit we were moved to mini games and were put into positions that we played usually, the game went slowly for me at the start of the game as all the ball time was held on the right side of the field. Evidently one of the players in my team got told off for hogging the ball in such a short period of time and the ball was then evenly split all across the field of only 150m perimeter.
We were then moved again to go to dribbling and stick work when the previous game was sitting at 3-2 to us. We were ran through the drill then we got to do the drill without being timed in which I took my time, then we were to do it the fastest as we could go and by estimate I think I did it in about 1minute and 30 seconds. Whilst I was waiting I was trying out a newly accomplished trick, the reverse hit. Hitting the boundary softly aswel teaching the other boys how to do it by putting out your right leg and swinging at the ball at a diagonally down then leveling out when near the ball.
