Have you got that end of season hangover? Don’t feel down, because we’ve got you covered with our seven ideas to keep you fit, rested and mentally ready before the new grass roots season starts in 2017. There is life after the seasons ends! Check them out...
1. Play in your local Summer football competition
It’s that time of year again and the football season is over, but the summer season is just beginning. Ok, you’ve probably missed the first couple of games, but when’s that ever stopped you! It’s a great way to have fun and socialise with a few mates. Just make sure you put plenty of zinc and SPF 50 sunscreen as it's a lot hotter than those chilly afternoons in June. If you live in Victoria, you can register to play in FFV's Summer Sevens competition.
2. Get your weekends back and hit the beach
After months of weekends being sacrificed, it’s now time to get your tan on. Get down to the beach, go surfing and splash around in the water like a baby that’s never seen the sea before – just have fun!
3. Spend some time doing the things you put off
Got that Great Ocean Road trip you wanted to take or maybe you just want to take a step back and re-evaluate your finances. Now is a better time than ever to do it. We have a few tips here to help you build your wealth.
4. Put more time aside for you
When you’ve had a long hard season, sometimes we just need some ‘me time’ to get your head straight for the new season. Reading books, doing yoga and hanging out with family who haven't seen you for most of the year, is a great way to spend your new found time off.
5. Work out and get strong for next season
Did you get injured a lot last season, or found you were up against bigger and stronger opponents? Why not take out a gym membership or get a personal trainer so you can prepare yourself better for next season.
6. Support your local A-League side
The A-League started last weekend, so why not get behind your local club! You’re based in Canberra? Don’t worry as the W-League season starts next month, with Canberra United’s first home game vs Champions, Melbourne City on 12th November.
7. Hibernate until the season starts
If all else fails, you can always sleep through the next 5 months until pre-season starts. Summer is overrated anyway…said nobody ever.
