Before you get the details of the best warm-up, let me first share a story. A team I consult with had a weekend tournament, with games scheduled on Saturday and Sunday at 8 am. During the Saturday game, the team got behind 2-0 within the first 15 minutes before playing to an even draw the remainder of the game. The coach knew the players were sluggish and were not properly prepared to play early on. The next day’s early morning game was different.

The important take away point from this story is how the performed as a result of their warm-ups. The first game warm-up was done by the players, who were very social. The did a light jog and some static stretching and followed with some more dynamic stretching before the game. None of the players had even broken a sweat! The second game was m …
