First Kick 2016 may still be months away, but a series of developments over the last week is a surefire sign that next season is already taking shape for the New England Revolution.
Last Monday, the club announced that it will kick off preseason camp on Jan. 22 at Gillette Stadium before embarking on a pair of trips to Arizona. The first will consist of a 10-day visit to Casa Grande, were the Revolution will face the Houston Dynamo on Feb. 6. The second will put the squad in Tucson for the Desert Diamond Cup tournament, which has become an annual winter tradition for the locals since coach Jay Heaps took the reins four years ago.
