Anfield Chance For Young Town Trio

Three Swindon Town Centre of Excellence players are spending this week training at Premier League side Liverpool.

The three players are Jordan Young (U13), Ryan Wood (U14) and Lee Marshall (U15) have been selected to spend a week's training at the Liverpool Academy.

The trip has been organized as part of their continued development with the club already having close links with the Anfield side.

Centre of Excellence manager, Jeremy Newton, commented: "Dave Moss, Head of Recruitment at the Liverpool Academy, is a former Swindon Town player and someone I know well.

"The experience of going up to Liverpool and training with them will be a good opportunity for the young boys and hopefully they will learn a lot from their time there.

"In turn, we are looking for the lads to come back to Swindon and put into practice what they learn from being in such a high-level environment.

Newton added: "It's a little reward for all the efforts the boys have put in during the first half of this season."
