  • Conditioning Interview
    ERFORMANCE P SOCCER CONDITIONING A NEWSLETTER DEDICATED TO IMPROVING SOCCER PLAYERS www.performancecondition.com/soccer Conditioning Interview: Kristine Lilly - Taking Control When Kristine Lilly retired from soccer in January, 2011 at the age of 38, she had played at the game’s highest level in four different decades. She played in five World Cups and three Olympic Games. She is a two-time world champion, a two-time gold medalist, a 23-year veteran of the U.S. Women’s Na- tional Soccer Team and she played in 352 games for her county—more than any other person in the world. She is the second leading scorer in the world behind Mia Hamm. Kristine was captain of the U.S. National Team from 2005-2007 and captain of the Boston Break- ers of Women’s Professional Soccer from 2001-2003, and again from 2009 to 2010. She was a five-time all-star for the Breakers and in 2010, the team retired her #13 jersey. Kristine played collegiately for the University of North Carolina, where she played in four ACC Championships, four NCAA Championships, held two captainships, and received four first-team All- America honors. She also had her jersey retired there. For the purpose of the interview conditioning is defined as soccer-specific development of speed, agility, mobility, strength/stability, power, speed/power endurance and aerobic endurance through train- ing, proper fueling and recovery methods to improve performance and prevent injury. BGN PC: You said that conditioning was the foundation of your career. Can you describe how you INT ADV laid this foundation through your experience? Who was influential in shaping this process? T-1 KL: The first person who put it into my head that conditioning was a lifetime commitment was Anson Dorrance of the University of North Carolina, who coached the Women’s National Team.

Find the adverbials in the text below (By Jere Longman in the New York Times, October 7, 2003). For each adverbial that you find, - Classify it as a VP adverbial or an S adverbial, and - Identify the kind of phrase that realizes the adverbial. They had the resolve of pioneers, traveling to soccer outposts like China and Haiti in the early days, living on candy bars, bathing in hotel pools when there was no running water or electricity. At first, they played in front of their friends and parents, but later they filled stadiums and, one of them, Mia Hamm, became the most widely known soccer player in the country. Hamm, Kristine Lilly, Julie Foudy and Joy Fawcett played in four Women’s World Cups, Brandi Chastain in three. The United States won two titles, but with a 3-0 defeat to Germany in the semifinals on Sunday, not only did this 2003 World Cup end prematurely for the Americans, but perhaps so did a groundbreaking era. These seminal players are expected to participate in the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, then all or most of them will retire. They have succeeded since 1987 on the national team with hustle, muscle, athleticism, fitness, determination and the cultural backing of a nation that granted women the same opportunities in sport as men. B. Write eight sentences. Each sentence must contain one of the following types of verbs, and all eight verbs must be used.
