For players involved in the U.S. national team program, getting together is always a special time. Unlike their high school and college days, when they get to spend every day with their teammates, training weekends are a rare chance to come together for an extended period of time.
The upcoming U.S. women’s team tryouts are even more special this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It’s been 18 months since the team last gathered together — at the IWLCA President’s Cup in Florida in November 2019 to be exact.
