We'll set to officially announce the team's pre-season schedule in a press release, but wanted to give you the scoop here, loyal readers.
You'll see via the schedule below that team is heading back to IMG Academy and Bradenton, FL (where several other MLS teams will be training) and also renewing its involvement with the Carolina Challenge Cup, a tournament we did not participate in last year. We're working on one other trip for the second leg (which is why you'll see a TBD below), but have not yet confirmed. The current plan follows...

Its disappointing there is such secrecy around the pre-season training sessions. Compare this with Bayern Munich who allows their sessions to be filed and available on the web.
