Silvia Neid invited her coaching staff to an Olympic workshop. The focal point of the meeting was the detailed planning of preparation methods for the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio, which begin on 3rd August with the first group game. Germany’s coach, her two assistants Ulrike Ballweg and Steffi Jones as well as goalkeeping coach Michael Fuchs all met in Frankfurt for the two-day meeting.
Silvia Neid explained, “Together we have worked out a detailed training plan for the next few months and developed some new ideas. I am very happy with the results of our workshop and I am looking forward to our first steps at the tournament in the USA.”
