East Bay High School Girls Flag Football 

1.  We are starting weight training and conditioning in September.  If you play other sports great!  If you don't or your sport is out of season let's start working out!

2.  What are we focusing on?  Primarily, we are strengthening the hamstring for ACL injury prevention using agilities, isometric and plyometric exercises.  Here are two websites discussing the topic of ACL injury prevention.

3.  Pre-season conditioning will be demanding.  Check the 2011 Calendar for times.

4.  Making the team will be highly competitive again this year!  Don't get complacent or think that you will make varsity.  Everyone needs to work to get better.

5.  You need to be in shape and if you start now with weights and conditioning you will be in better shape.

6.  You need to start working now to improve your speed, quickness and ability to catch.  Do sprints moreso than long distance running.

7.  We will make some adjustments to our defensive and offensive packages. 

8.  Get ready to build on our success.  Get ready for tougher practices.  Everyone in our district will be coming at us even harder this year and those who played in the tournament this summer knows the level which we will need to play in order to make it to State!
