They also had the opportunity to have any questions on tactics and coaching answered on, at times, a one to one basis.

The players who were being coached were boys from the Under 13 and 14 teams, who thoroughly enjoyed themselves and experienced some of the best coaching around.

Hillsborough Boys believe these sessions are the way forward for the club and the ethos of playing football the way it should be played.

The club hope they can have more sessions like this in the future.
