Our day started pretty late at 9.30 in the morning. I was saved from waking up at daybreak. I guess the Trans-Atlantic journey has affected me more than I’d want to believe. I was fighting sleep during practice hours yesterday. Today was no better. I hope coach hasn’t spotted me stifling my yawns. Definitely, don’t want the first impression to be the wrong one. A new environment does that to us you know; the extra spring in the step to perform and impress.

We got to meet the best pitcher in Major League, that’s Coach Jackson. He’ll be giving us pitching lessons. I’m quite awed by all the achievers around me. We were taught few exercises to improve our agility. Coach Jackson also worked on conditioning our body to meet the rigors of the game. It was a happy outing today. Also got to watch a game of baseball in the evening.
