We’re back with another Atlético Ottawa Training Camp update for you! As always, to stay up to date on all things ATO, make sure you follow us on our Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook on top of checking the ATOTC page on our website for 2 – 3 update blogs a week.

Day 1 on the pitch – March 2nd: Our training days consist of a morning, and afternoon session. You would never be able to tell that March 2nd was the first day that our squad has ever played together as a unit. The chemistry is definitely present, and all the players were eager to show their new coach what they can do. The day went as follows; a light training session in the morning followed by a tactical meeting in the afternoon, and a more physically demanding session in the evening.

Day 2 on the pitch – March 3rd: Rain, rain, and more rain. Our 2nd day of actual field training was greeted by nothing but rain and cold weather, but that didn’t stop us. Thursday the 3rd started with our morning session as usual, followed by a video session, and a very windy and cold evening session. The squad already looks like they’ve been playing together for months.

Day 3 on the pitch – March 4th: In true Canadian fashion, on March 4th, we woke up to snow. We thought we could escape the cold weather, but it seems we brought a piece of Ottawa along with us to Spain. Due to the overnight snowfall, head coach Carlos decided to cancel the morning session on the pitch and instead run a fitness session in the gym. In the afternoon, the squad had their daily team meeting and then headed to the pitch for the evening session.
