After arriving at Manchester airport I went straight to the U20's training camp location which is in Leigh...about 20 minutes outside of Manchester. From there Trudie and I had the job of sorting out the "kit". For my American friends "kit" is basically your gear and can be used to describe anything from your practice jersey/ shorts to your game jersey/shorts and pretty much anything in between. The word "jersey" in England would describe something more like a vest top....strange I know...but just go with it.
After that we traveled back to Manchester where the Great Britain Senior and World University Games Team camp is located. Trudie and I helped do the same with their kit, which proved to be quite the task as there are 26 girls in their training camp.
Then it was time for a staff dinner, that I could barely keep my eyes open at due the jet lag.
Definitely time for me to go to bed and get rested for the first day of camp! Really excited to meet all the girls tomorrow!
