Youngsters train again
Outdoor non-contact training for under-18s throughout Rutherglen and Cambuslang resumed this week.
Following an update from First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, Scottish FA registered clubs are now permitted to arrange one 45-minute session each week for 12-17 year olds.
This arrangement remains in place for under-12s.
General manager of South Lanarkshire leisure and culture, David Booth, said:“We’re delighted to extend non-contact training to under-18s as well as under-12s.
