City’s youngsters enjoyed a brief break over Christmas with the EDS and Under-18s waiting for match action to return in 2025. 

But both teams were back at the City Football Academy for one final time in the calendar year to continue preparations and maintaining fitness before competitive football returns for Ben Wilkinson, Oliver Reiss and their teams. 

And what a picturesque training session it was. 

With the chilly winter sun beaming bright, the players looked to have lots of fun whilst working hard.
