Been too busy planning training to read the forum!!!

We spend some time on hose drill - in all sorts of scenarios.

I get them to work on ensuring they can bowl out all sizes of hose, couple lengths, get water flowing, and then make up (using our nifty "Peter Green" hose winder handles!!)

We give them scenarios, to get them to think out the best way of doing things.

EG, they have to couple together up to 5 lengths of hose, to reach the target, but have fences to get over / under.   The crews then have to work out the best way of getting to the target, and work out what works, what doesn't.

Also uses pump operators.

While the exercise might sound a bit basic,it ensures that all crew members are very efficient at getting all types of hose deployed.
