Matt Ellis, Head of Academy Sport Science, said: "It was a great day for the players as it was not only fun for them, but a really important test for their fitness. 

"With the extra work they're putting in and the fantastic facilities we're getting to use at Stoneleigh, we believe they'll be one of the fittest Under-18 squads next season.
