Tulliallan Training Day Sunday 13 August

This Sundays training day at the Scottish Police College, Tulliallan proved a great success. The boys met at Hairmyres at 0900 and travelled through to Kincardine. We arrived at 10 and had a 2 hour training session before breaking for lunch and a game of putting. The boys then played a bounce game against Crieff Juniors under 14 in which they handled themselves well. The strength of the bigger and older team told in the end, but it was worth the game to see the effort that all put in. The most noteable performance of the day was JAMES KINNIBURGH who was outstanding in goals throughout. We left the college around half three before stopping at McDonalds, Alloa for some well deserved rewards and the home for 5.30.
