Arrival in Hsinchu (day 7)

A new day and just spending a night at the airport as a teambuilding activity, all sleeping well and 9.00 our hostess Sam welcomed us at the enterence where five small shuttles arrived on time for a 60 km ride to the city of Hsinchu. 

Arrived at the hotel, checked in and had a good teamchat. We got some food, took,a rest and prepared ourselves for the training session.

Getting ready for the match we just wanted players to get used to the court. Some shooting, drills with both moves but also use the various position on both division. Luckily the team from Macau China wanted to play a short pratice match. Twice ten minutes and all players took a chance to show their oncourt skills. We had many shots, rebounds from any place on the court. We are going to focus a little bit more of the quality of our first shot and a more secure passing, but most of all we are going to enjoy.

Adjustments are going to be made in the time schedule, we want to use as much rest as possible, just enjoy it. Together we the staff and the players we had a teammeeting about our goals, focus. Train like it is a match, play the match like it is a training, and we know what we were able to acchieve back home. If you prepare all situations you can expect, we will never be surprised when something hapens. Believe in yourself and try to cross your boundaries. Playing safe and full on control is not going to make a champion out of you.... By playing at the edge, you are going to make mistakes but widen your playground!

We are ready, Sunday we welcome you!
