Finally some training

I got back from the XC trip about a week ago, For anyone interested, I went southeast from WW through Oregon and the souther part of Idaho into Utah down to Salt Lake. From there I started going almost straight west, through the souther part of Wyoming and across the Nebraska. In eastern Nebraska I went southeast to Kansas City and from there continues west through St. Louis, Louisville and West Virginia into Virginia and home to Charlottesville. Since then I've been sending my resumé out to a bunch of League 2 and Conference level teams, 8 in total so far. They only take trial enquiries through snail mail, which is annoying, but it is what it is. Tonight I'm finally starting training with the Fredericksburg PDL team. Richmond has stopped answering emails, obviously because they don't want some random keeper coming to their training sessions. I understand but still, come on, be a man and say it to me. Don't just stop answering the emails. Fredericksburg only practices 2 times a week, so hopefully I'll be able to find something else as well. Their coach said they have a bunch of UVa players, so maybe I'll talk to them about being in goal during their off season workouts, depending on what their keeper situation is over the summer. I've noticed that a lot of teams in England have their preseason schedules up. They generally are starting games in mid-July, so hopefully I'll get some replies and be able to get over there by early July. That would be ideal, but honestly I'm not so sure on the odds for that happening.
