Orlando Pride players grateful to resume individual workouts

Orlando Pride players returned to the team's training facilities in Sanford for the first time in almost two months on Friday to participate in individual training sessions under a new NWSL protocol.

The league began allowing voluntary individual workouts on outdoor fields Wednesday, marking the first time players could visit team facilities since the league shut down all practices in March due to the coronavirus pandemic.

“This was much, much needed,” Pride captain Ashlyn Harris said. “We spend so much time on preparation for preseason and on our body. We need to be out here touching balls and opening up, being on good surfaces.
