With some time off from team trainings this winter due to COVID, the 2010 and 2009 Pre-ECNL Players participated in weekly Live Zoom Technical Improvement (TIP) Sessions.  After multiple weeks of these coach-led sessions by Zoom, our last two TIP sessions were not only designed by, but also demonstrated and completely led by the players! These players found whatever space they could find, big or small, living room, basement or garage, to train on their own.  One of the largest factors that determines the long-term success of any player is the amount of time they spend working on technique outside of team training sessions.  While team training sessions can do many things, in order to become “skillful” with the ball, every player needs lots and lots of repetitions of touches on the ball. We are excited to see our Pre-ECNL players continue to improve and use these skills in training and in games this spring!
