I hope everyone is staying home, keeping their distance, and staying safe and healthy.

As a club our top priority right now is community health, and we’re following the most current and up to date guidelines on what that looks like.
As you may have heard, the Vermont Soccer Association has extended the suspension of soccer here in Vermont until April 15th.

I do realize this leaves the big question – “What’s going to happen with this season?”

Right now, we’re continuing to prepare for a great spring that starts at about the same time as it usually starts for us as we get out onto the fields in mid-April.
The coaches and managers will keep you up to speed on scheduling as it relates directly to your team.

Of course this can change at a moment’s notice. And if it does we will let you know.

In the meantime, get outdoors and get on the ball!
And if it’s cold and you’re stuck inside, use one of those extra rolls of toilet paper for juggling like the pros are doing for their #stayathomechallenge videos.

My challenge to you all is a simple one – just get on the ball!
No matter what you’re doing, take a quick video of it, and let’s get it out there for the world to see.
To get it to me, you can text or email.
Or better yet, since you all follow us on Insta or FB, post it there and tag Addison United.
It doesn’t matter what it is, just show us your best stuff!

Here is my favorite YouTube channel for individual ball work videos, called Fast Feet Home Soccer Workouts.

Lets see those moves!
