Stay FIT over the Thanksgiving Break!
The 2022 World Cup in Qatar is just around the corner and we are all looking forward to watching our favorite players and national teams! Inspired by the World Cup, we are offering a 4-day mini camp for travel players with each training day focused on a different World Cup National team style of play. In addition to developing individual technical and small-group tactical skills, players will develop their physical capacities with speed, agility, quickness (SAQ) and coordination activities.
Players will be organized into skill-specific training groups for most sessions. They will rotate through the stations working each day on specific topics related to some of the qualities of the World Cup national teams' identified style of play and SAQ.
