Pre Season Training

After a couple of months break from Football we are back for Pre Season training this week.

Beginning with younger senior players for the first couple of weeks, inviting a few of the AJAX juniors (U16-U17) to join, the first session had over 50 in attendance.  The older senior players will join on Monday 20 November and the Jackettes start Monday 27 November.

Training sessions are Mondays & Wednesdays 6-8pm, Saturdays time tba via players what's app.  We encourage all senior players from all teams to join training.

In another Club initiative we will be joined by Dvir Abramovich on Monday 27 November at 6pm in David Mandie Pavilion, to speak with the Club, players, coaches and staff, to educate us all on our response to anti-semitism on and off the field.  This is a must attend session for all players, coaches and staff.
