The weight room will be open Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 10:01 AM-11:16 AM beginning Monday, July 4th. Workouts last approximately 40 minutes when athletes proceed at a steady pace. Hard- work in July and August will be at our side when we take the field in September, October, November and December.
Wow! Our JV's served notice that they are on a mission in 2011 this past Saturday. We kicked-off game one in a wild melee vs AAA Champion Mt. Douglas and finished on top of a 38-28 tilt. Game two vs arch-rival Ballenas was 28-6 Barsby and game three against AAA finalist Vancouver college wound up 30-6 for the Dawgs.
JV's "Get After It!" Spring 2011
The scores don't necessarily tell the whole story of the day however as coaches on both sides of the ball rotated players liberally. The story of the day was team execution, mental cohesion, physicality and desire. Much hard work has taken place since 4 December 2010 to prepare for the 2011 campaign. Six months into the process and we demonstrated that we are well on track as individuals and a team.
Video analysis shows however, that there is much work to do to be where we want to be on both sides of the ball. There will be some wound licking for a couple days and then it is back to work building something we can all be proud of!
Players, coaches, parents and supporters. A great Spring!! Time to hit the books and finish as strong as we can in the classroom.
Congratulations to our Varsity Dawgs on a well played afternoon of Football! The rivalry game with Ballenas is surely alive and well!!
The coaching staff was able to get a very good look at a wide variety of players in different positions and combinations throughout the day. It was a pleasure to see the teamwork between veteren players, new arrivals from JV and our group of brand new Barsby Football Players. There is much potential in the 2011 group and a whole lot of work ahead required to narrow the gap between our current performance and where our potential performance exists. Narrowing that gap is half the fun of playing the game!
