Competition for spots
As Philadelphia Union concludes its first stint of preseason in Clearwater, Florida, the guys have been hard at work training to impress the coaching staff and earn their spot on the team. Tomorrow will mark the end of the Union's third and final preseason scrimmage before entering the Suncoast Invitational in their second trip to Clearwater next week. In Head Coach Jim Curtin's weekly press conference today, he discussed how important the preseason matches will be in determining who will earn a starting position come March 3 when the team kicks off its season.
