The first day the group headed to their accommodation at the Cambrils Park before having a free afternoon and evening with dinner at the Cambrils Park in preparation for the busy day to follow.



The Tuesday consisted of a Masterclass training session with a Spanish coach before departing for the Futbol Salou Sports Complex.
