Our first team training session is DONE! 🎊

It was amazing getting (almost) everyone together for our first session and finally getting to train with our new team members! From getting back into the swing of things to putting in the work on court, it was such a great way to kick off the season.

We’re so excited to see everyone grow, improve and get to know each other throughout the year! 💪🏼

This is only the beginning — we’ve got plenty more training sessions, matches and memories to come! 👀✨
