- Tuesday sessions improved throughout the year
- Standard of hockey massively improved
- opening ourselves up to constructive criticism

# data[].attributes.body
- Tuesda  trainings were often crap due to cage and poor availability. Changing to a half pitch session with a coach will hopefully improve availability on Tuesdays.
- Availability on weekends was poor and could be improved by getting fitter, bit of S&C training etc
- Thoughts on holidays? I know skiing is pretty limited time so fair play but first half of season could we have been a bit more intelligent with when we took holidays (end of November still possible)

# data[].attributes.body
- Get a coach with a session plan
- get 10 people consistently (if in the cage)
- Get half a pitch sessions
- If in the cage, prioritise 1 technical element in between high intensity small games

# data[].attributes.body
- Criticism is always constructive and not personal, dont take it that way
- Dont turn up on Thursday and expect to get rolled by the 1s or make it an exercise just for them
- Dont be late to meet times on weekends
- Dont get cheap cards
- Stick around afterwards unless absolutely have to leave

# data[].attributes.body
- Fitness doesnt start in September, we need to be way fitter especially with the press we do, so start in June/July
- When we are in the cage, prioritise short corners, feel like we missed a trick there last year
- Video, Andrew's WhatsApps were really good, could we do more?

There will be times in the season where availability is low due to injuries/international fixtures etc. During those weeks I'd rather play with 12 National League players rather than pad out the squad with players who aren't quite at the level required.

Lack of availability across the 1s and 2s was a big issue and affected us massively. Obviously life happens and injuries happen but if we are serious about getting into Div 1 then everyone needs to be committed to be available to play each weekend rather than organising holidays during the season.

Warmups - I injured myself because we didn’t warm up/down at training very well. (Personal responsibility acknowledged.)

Individuals must take responsibility for the standard & intensity

# data[].attributes.body
We should acknowledge we have a range of ages and abilities so one rule for all won't work. I'd rather give higher quality, more experienced players flexibility regarding training availability than not select them due to other commitments (e.g. families, jobs etc).

A bit more imagination around socials would have been nice

Everybody selected for the weekend games needs to understand how we play (what press, marking outside etc). Definitely need to emphasize this during selection and create a culture where asking these questions is seen as a positive (e.g. I don't understand what I'm doing in a certain scenario)

I’ve played for lots of sides and have felt really welcome by everyone in the club, it’s made me want to stick around longer and give more to the club overall.

As individuals we need to be much much fitter. Some exceptions, but generally I think the majority will say they were not fit enough last season

I'd except everyone to stick around after games next season, to develop the culture we're looking to build. Obviously there are exceptions, but generally the same people shoot off straight after matches and the same people stick around

In an ideal world, Tuesdays sessions have a coach and half the pitch at pad rec. It's how close we can get to that scenario. Agree if neither of these are possible, Tuesdays can be varied & used for individual drills, fitness related activities, shooting & goalscoring only, short corner practice etc

We got way to many cards and didn't really have a plan or set tactic to play with a man down, that the whole team understood & bought in to. Personally, I can't remember what we did with a man down

particularly in the first half of the season, the press didn't really work (wrong personnel, not fit enough, lack of understanding) - do we need 2 or 3 different presses we can flip from (zone, half court, 3/4 & splitting full-backs), or is it better specializing in only 1 press?

Having a proper coach who cares makes a huge difference and I think we underappreciated that at times.

As an alternative to Cage Rage and providing that we can’t get our own half pitch, would the club be willing to fund us sync with L2s to share a half pitch for our second training session? Logistics permitting…

A quarter pitch is much more conducive to high intensity especially due to the run-off room. It may also accommodate a few more than the Cage if our squad grows (with quality players). We could also share coaches for that session?

Accept that some people are louder than others in a group setting. Some lads prefer to listen and are less confident speaking out on the pitch. That’s OK, but if we’re going to encourage everyone to have a voice, individuals need to continue to be overtly inclusive - it may take channels like this in future. Don’t take this for granted, it’s what gives this group a fantastic foundation for an awesome culture and results will follow.

Everyone puts in a shift now to aid recruitment and get a big squad of quality players together for pre-season onwards. I’m sure we’ve got a strong collective network to tap into?

Generally pretty good and funny but a couple of times in MoMs and Dods the line was crossed. Don’t say something you wouldn’t say to their face :)
