Hello Bloggers and welcome to the first instalment of the Euro Hockey Club Trophy blog 2010.
One more sleep and we open our tournament against a tough and talented HC Roma side. Two of Mark's former Belper HC team mates will be on the opposite side, Australians Phil Marshall and Sam McCambridge.
Whitchurch’ build up has gone well (even though Mark tried to end Ben's tournament before it began with a shin bashing (chin up)) and was finished off with a final run around tonight at training.
As usual we turned up late as time keeping is not one of our strong points, but luckily we arrived before the coach so no laps were required this week :) The boys were looking sharp and all relishing the opportunity of hosting this year’s tournament and hopefully having a bumper home crowd.
After Marks midweek stick crisis, he finally managed to get his hands on one and would like to thank Slazenger for their continued support.
We came home showered and continued carbo loading and hydrating ready for a tough few days of competition. This is key to optimal performance as we know from our sports scholar seminars at the University of Glamorgan.
A good night’s sleep is called for the both of us, so log on again tomorrow for something more interesting from within the squad.
Ben and Mark
