Training Update
After challenging double sessions on Monday and Tuesday designed to emphasize a variety of core fundamentals including strength and endurance, aerobic fitness, tactical and technical work, the Fire hit the field in Tampa Wednesday morning for an intrasquad scrimmage. Head coach Veljko Paunovic and his coaching staffed divided their roster into Team Gray and Team Blue and periodically paused play to give instruction over the course of the 50-minute scrimmage.
Team Gray nearly took the lead in the first half when Gilberto got on the end of a pass from Collin Fernandez, but the Brazilian’s chip went just wide of the post.
