      GoalKeeper Training

      I am sorry for the late notice, we will be having goalkeeper training this Thursday for the youngster only at 5pm at Tiffany Roberts. This will be 1 hour long, and will be u9-14s. Since there are teams training for spring, it maybe difficult to be directly on the field, so look for me either in a corner of Tiffany Roberts, or on nearby grass.

      Thanks again for your patience, and I look forward to seeing all of your gks out there this week.

      Coaches, this will be going on for at least May, and then we will change up everything come June due to academy schedule.

      Thank you for your support,
