Its ok to train in hot weather. You just have to hydrate yourself very well and pace yourself throughout the training. Dont push it too hard at first. The more you force yourself to train in hot weather, the easier it will become after a while. You start to get used to it.

Well it really depends what temeperature you're accustomed to playing your games.

For example, a player in Saudi Arabia would be used to 30-31 degrees as all his games is also at that temperature, meaning when he trains, he would use that sort of temperature to train himself because he would know how to avoid dehydration and also know what the stamina is required for that.

But if usually your games are on days with around 25 degrees or less, then I guess training in 30-31 degrees is quite pointless unless you want to climatize yourself to different surroundings.

Drink an abundance of water and avoid fizzy drinks, and don't over-train cause it may be more harmful than helpful. If you can, try find an indoor place to train but that may be impossible so oh well.

I wouldnt say its pointless because if you train in hot weather and then go to some cooler weather, it will be much easier and your body will be much more effecient.

Train but don't overtrain in especially hot weather. Make sure you have plenty of water with you for drinking and for cooling your face and head by pouring it on your face but if you are having to do this you may well need a rest.

well for the skin problem try wearing sunblock. But the most important is to stay hydrated.i hate practicing in the heat b/c somteimes it makes me tireed and dizzy. So my coaches willl tell me to drick a lot of water all the time to stay hydrated.

i train every day in about 35 to 40C.
I start sweating in like 5 min but train about 1 hour and then take a quick break for 5 min and drink something and than start again.

Then in the evening i go to the pool and swim laps..

I say get used to the heat guys caz it doesn't look like it's gonna cool down during the summer.

i play in 35 degrees, and with the humidy factor it was about 40!
Sure I sweat a lot, but that just lets me know that I'm working hard.
Just be safe and put on sunscreen and stay hyrdated!

i say its better to play under conditions so ur body and mind can get used to play in all type of situations

but never push urself too much

gets used to very hot or cold tempertures slowly so u dont hurt urself

and alwasy stay hydrated drink many fluids

I'm quite surprised of the weather turnout in Canada.
