The Colorado Rapids Youth Club is committed to inspire and help young soccer players reach their full potential on and off the field. As part of this commitment, the club is excited to announce a partnership with Dryland Sports.

Dryland Sports was co-founded by retired Rapids player Bobby Burling with the mission to bring modern sports performance training and recovery to young athletes.

“Sports science is helping elite players increase performance and reduce injury for longer and healthier sports careers. At Dryland Sports we are bringing these winning strategies, training tools, and recovery equipment to young athletes to increase performance and help reduce risk of injury,” said Bobby Burling.

Dryland takes a holistic approach to player development and their small group class format offers the individual attention your athlete deserves. Dryland Soccer develops a player’s strength, speed and agility and endurance using the latest in modern cross-training. Dryland Soccer focuses on developing the proper technique and strength required to accelerate through the constant stop-starts and lateral movements our sport demands. Before the field, the smart players #dotheirdryland.
