Noel Hunt's youngsters are back on the grass at Bearwood - watch on RoyalsTV...

On Thursday, our Under-21 side returned to Bearwood Park for their first day of pre-season training ahead of the 2023-24 campaign.

It's a chance for Noel Hunt's charges to show their fitness, make an impression, and stake a claim!

And there's gruelling work ahead in the coming weeks... building up fitness, strength, sharpness and endurance that will allow them to play a part in coming season.
