movements in water.
c). Sitting in a straight legged position wrap a towel around the base of
your foot and pull toes toward your head (dorsiflexion). Hold for
6 seconds count and continue for 3-5 minutes.

toe completely by using only the toes. Repeat 3 times.
*** Ice and elevate if any fluid accumulates after exercising ***
2. Resistance Exercises:

6 reps. at 30 secs. each
b). Eversion with resistance
Using a large rubber band to hold both feet in place stretch against the
rubber band with an eversion movement.
3-5 minutes 6 reps. at 30 sec. each.
c). Toe Raises – standing flat on the floor raise heels off floor.
Note: An achilles stretch should be done before and after each of these
exercises in #’s 2 and 3.
3. Jogging, Running and Sprinting: ( In pool at first if possible)
a). Straight jog 400-800 yds. ( ice after exercise)

For these exercises soreness must act as your guide. As you progress through

At the jog and hop stage you may shoot actively – No 1:1 games.
