It's a training philosophy that gets players to perform in practice as they would in a game (sharp, focused and to a high standard).

Some of the skills covered in this session include reflex catching, Underarm pick up and throw and dive catching. If you work as hard in training as you do when it comes to match day then the results will be clear for all to see.
