training
Axy correct system of Training for a
team comprises three separate and dis¬
tinct elements: the physical, mental, and
moral.
An eleven should be physically fit to play
a hard, fast, furious, and aggressive game
from start to finish, and not in trial heats
or to make a relay race of the game by
playing sixteen or twenty men because of
the inability of the individuals to meet the
physical requirements of the match.
A team should be mentally fit in the
sense that it thoroughly knows its own
game from A to Izzard. Every man should
know every play, and his place in every
play. The signals must be second nature.
