The sessions will run on Tuesday 4th April, with under-12s, 13s and 14s taking part in the 10am-12pm session and under-15s and 16s taking part in the 1pm-3pm session.

Both age groups will have a classroom session involving video analysis.

It will also include player profiling as the players will profile themselves on a number of different skills and set some developmen­t goals.

The outdoor element will see the players take part in skills session on a 3G pitch and/or grass where they will develop skills and compete in small games.
