Week 11 Training

We continue to move closer to being able to get on the field together. Perhaps only a couple more weeks!

This week there is some review of ball mastery skills for some as well as some new skills to figure out.  There are also some fun videos including a classic Timbers game in the old Civic Stadium before the big MLS remodel.  Take a look, get some touches in, and have some fun!

Don’t forget about the juggling challenge, and remember to take a look at our previous posts for some more skills challenges and ideas.
