OL Reign recently completed their first full week of preseason training in Arizona, with the team training at Grande Sports World in Casa Grande, home to FC Barcelona’s Barca Residency Academy. With league and local COVID-19 restrictions limiting indoor sessions in tight quarters, the team opted to fly to Arizona where it was warm and remote.

On Tuesday, head coach Laura Harvey and defender Lauren Barnes participated in the first press conference of the year, where they talked about the excitement of preseason, the positive energy of the group, and a lot more.

Hello, Arizona

The vibes were noticeably strong in Arizona, with Harvey proudly declaring they “haven’t seen a single cloud here” after Barnes commented on the welcome warm weather.
