Fall trial prep season is upon us!
There’s no secret to success and high scores in IGP…. It’s earned through the grind. 💪

Sometimes it’s improving speed of dumbell pickups, sometimes it’s reworking rewards in heeling to create different attitudes…. And sometimes it’s renting soccer fields for proofing trial picture in new locations!
