Youngsters return to the training pitch with preparations already underway for our new campaign

It's a short summer... our youngsters are already back in training! Noel Hunt's Under-23 side returned to Bearwood on Monday, as preparations began for the new campaign.

As usual, lots of testing - to see what kind of condition they return in and where the focus will lie in the coming weeks. And that was followed by a first session back on the grass on a scorching day at our training facility!

Take a watch, above...
