Recapping 1UPโs First Teachers Strike POP UP Camp!
1UP fam, weโre thrilled to announce that our first Teachersโ Strike Pop-Up Camp was a massive success!
On Monday, Oct. 6, the Alberta government announced a strike across the province for all public school teachers, affecting 730,000 students.
At 1UP, we decided to offer students who were not in school the chance to train at 1UPโs Teachersโ Strike Pop-Up Camp.
From Tuesday, Oct. 7, to Friday, Oct. 10, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., 1UP trained 260 players, including 18 goalkeepers, who were coached by 13 1UP staff coaches, five volunteer teachers and one school principal.
Check out some of the best photos from the camp below:

Graham Fisher, 1UPโs founder, commented on what the sponsorship means to him and the academy, โWe would like to send Lyndsay and Dylan from EarthFix a heartfelt thank you for their sponsorship,โ Fisher said.
โThe Nichols have been apart of the 1UP family for years and we hope this only grows our relationship. You will see the beautiful EarthFix logo on our youth academy shirts starting tomorrow at our Advanced Skills Camp!"
