We had
our afternoon practice session from 2:30pm – 5:00pm …
Let me
re-phrase that… it was to start at 2:30pm … about ½ of the girls
were late…
only a few minutes .. but that was enough to earn them the right
to do sprints for being late….
I am sure this will be the last time ANYONE will be late on the
team again….
After
doing their sprints we got back to a good practice…
We
stopped practice for the 5:00pm SNACK…. (if it seem like
everything revolves
around meal times.. you are correct…
We had
from 5pm – 6:30pm to relax and sit by the pool or go back to the
dorm room for a nap…
Our
evening practice was to start at 6:30pm ALL of the girls were
there by 6:15pm ready
to go…. (I am sure the memory of the afternoon sprints had
something to do with their promptness.
When
we arrived to the gym … one of the Brazil Junior national teams
was playing the German
junior national teams. We watched the first game…. The girls on these
teams are about the
same age (20 years old) but their size is nothing close … Most
of the girls on the team are well
over 6 feet tall …
After
the first game we went to our team practice until 8:30 pm and
then to dinner…
Everyone was in their rooms by 9…
Everything is going well…. We are making good improvement…. And
learning a lot….
Especially about being …… prompt…. (smile….)
More
later ... I am still hoping to send some photos…
Bye
from Brazil …
