Youth Team Trip Sponsored

Burnley’s Youth Team are back in action this weekend, when they face Boston United in the Youth Alliance Cup second round on Saturday.

The game kicks-off in Boston at midday and with a long trip to make for the game, local company ‘David Fishwick LDV Van Centre’ have sponsored an overnight trip for the players.

The squad will also be wearing new track-suits for the game, which have been kindly sponsored by the Earby Clarets supporters’ club.

After training on Friday morning, Terry Pashley and his team will make the trip south and stay in Lincolnshire on Friday night to be ready and refreshed for the game on Saturday.

The youth team have made a super start to the season and have an 100 per cent record in the Youth Alliance Conference having won eight games out of eight whilst they also saw off Rotherham United in the first round of the cup. Last season also saw them reach the final of the Youth Alliance Cup, when they lost on penalties to Swindon Town at Turf Moor so they will be looking to go one better this season.

Speaking about the news, Head Of Youth Development Vince Overson said: “It is a great boost for us that the trip is being sponsored by David Fishwick.

“It is a long way to travel in one day and the trip will give the lads a chance to go into the game more refreshed and ready and hopefully we’ll see a win.

“We’re also thankful to the Earby Clarets for their sponsorship of the track-suits, again it is a tremendous boost to the boys.

“We are lucky to have such a supportive set of fans and it’s great that they are supporting the Youth Development in this way.”
