The Fight Club, Popeyes, and now the Scrum. Let’s pray the third time’s the charm. YHC may be the only member of F3NOLA to start two different AOs that died, but this may be the difference maker.
On Monday, January 24, 2022, F3 NOLA planted our first flag in LaSalle Park on the outskirts of the Shrine of Airline, home to the NOLA Gold, and within a short distance of the Saints and Pelicans training facilities. It is time to train like the big boys.
8 Pax came out for the Inaugural Scrum. YHC had plans to focus this workout around the two outdoor exercise locations in the park only to be undone by the Jefferson Parish Park Department. Due to wear on the floor of the exercise stations and the equipment, the Park tore down the exercise stations on January 20th. Thankfully plans are already in place for new equipment at La Salle which The Scrum and Goldmine will take full advantage of once they are completed.
But this led to a quick audible for YHC as the entire workout was now planned on the fly.
