Phoenix Rising will be hosting an open combine for trialists from January 12-14 at the Phoenix Rising Youth Soccer Facility. A select number of participants in the Phoenix Rising combine will be given the opportunity to attend preseason with the Phoenix Rising first team and make an appearance in a friendly against an MLS team in January.
For several years, Phoenix Rising has been providing opportunities to unsigned players, with Zac Lubin securing the position of the team’s starting goalkeeper in both 2019 and 2020 after impressing coaches during an open combine.
