1st day on tour

After allowing the boys to settle in and grab a quick bite of food we headed to the training field. It was now midnight UK time but the boys didn't just that hamper their spirits. 

In 30 degrees heat the boys worked hard  for 90mins in preparation for the first games on Friday. No new injuries sustained which is always good news. 

After training, the boys had leisure time to explore the university campus before dinner at half 7. The standard and quality of the food was excellent with a great selection of meats, salads, desserts and unlimited refills on drinks which the boys really appreciated due to the heat. 

The rest of the evening has been spent exploring the vast university campus further which has a swimming pool, ice hockey arena, 3 basketball courts, 400m indoor running track and it's very own food court to name a few of its attractions. 

The boys will train again in the morning, after which we all will attend the Calgary Stampede before the boys meet their hosts for the next 2 nights. 

Good night all we have now all been up for 23-24 hours zzzzzzzzz

Plenty of pictures to follow tomorrow.
