In previous weeks the walk through has been a combination day, of day three/redzone and final adjustments. Coming off a Friday game last week heading into the Saturday game this week the Gladiators was able to get in extra practice. The walk-through is a dress rehearsal with the travel team allowing them to casually visualize and practice their game reps. The Coaches have a more subtle approach allowing more situations to be talked out over constant conditioning. Traveling to the west coast is normally beneficial to eastern time zone teams because they gain 3 hours of time, however its also a disadvantage to east coast team when considering the start time of games. For example, home games typically start at 7pm, but in traveling to the west their 7pm start time is equivalent to a 10pm start time for the Gladiators. I am sure there will be an early bed check. I will not be traveling with the team this weekend.
