Grateful for an incredible Goalball Development Camp at the Hangar🙌
A huge thank you to Goalball Australia, all the coaches, officials, and referees, as well as Dan and Annette Pritchard, and camp manager Rod Pritchard. None of this would have been possible without your time, knowledge, and support.
Over the two days, we learned so much — from throwing and defensive techniques, to how to block bounce balls. We also had a valuable gym session focused on strength and recovery.
To wrap up the camp, we put everything into practice with a round robin, which was a great way to apply what we’d learned in a game setting.
Feeling motivated and excited to keep improving 💪
