We heard this week from OregonLive.com that the new Portland Timbers facility in Beaverton is finally at a stage with regards to their grass that the squad can start practicing there a little more regularly.

The Timbers conducted full training sessions at the facility Friday and Saturday.

This was the first sessions on the new pitch since April 19.

The biggest issue for the players and coaches was the length of the grass on the natural grass field back in April. The team decided to let the grass grow a bit more. And now with a more mature lawn the boys are getting at it.
