training James Young 8pm Wed 25th feb


The boys had a New Coach - David Burnett

The first training session with him included a Warm up passing drill with 1 ball then onto 2 balls,
Dribbling exercise's. Then onto defending practice back onto passing exercise and finish off with small game 4 v 4 all in then 2 touch warm down & stretches.



There are only 10 games left to play of the season, so hopefully with the help of the new coach the boys will see some improvement and start scoring some more goals.
