It was an early start this morning, breakfast at 8am. Training started at 9 am this morning. Our coach Toni worked on set pieces with the boys today, in preperation for the match this afternoon. We learned that the Valencia first team were training at the same place as us today, behind closed doors though. After training we waited around the gates of the training pitch hoping to catch a glimpse of the stars. We were really lucky. All the boys met the majority of the first team squad when they were driving out of the ground. Stars such as David Villa, David Silva, Joaquin, Edu and Asier Del Horno were more than happy to stop and sign autographs and have photos taken with our boys. They were all really chuffed to have met these guys!! Kevin bought a Valencia top and got all the players to sign it!! Dont wash that one Caroline!!!
We played our first match this afternoon against Serranos 11′s. We played 9 a side on a full size pitch which was a bit different for our boys. They all played very well and it ended up in a 3-1 defeat for us. Nothing to be ashamed off at all. Heading back for tea now, then to the Mestalla for Valencia - Real Madrid match. Check out the photos of the day so far….
