The Red and Golden brigade has opted for sea, the Mariners have opted for misty clad mountain, and now it is Bay of Bengal for the Black and White brigade.
Mohammedan Sporting has started phase two of their pre-season camp at Digha, a seaside town at the northern end of the Bay of Bengal, 183 km from Calcutta.
A couple of weeks back, Mohammedan Sporting had kicked-off their pre-season campaign at the club ground. However, to stress on the fitness level and the team spirit among the footballers the team management has decided to hold a residential camp.
This year's team is a heady mixture of youth and experience. Big club veterans, Dipendu Biswas, Dipankar Roy, and Sashti Duley will be turning out for Mohammedan Sporting this time along with foreigners Theodore Sunday Wrobeh and Peter Odafe. The team has almost retained the newcomers from last year.
"Training on the sand should increase the fitness level, also, the hotel is equipped with gymnasium and swimming pool", reckons Coach Shabbir Ali.
Old warhorse, Dipendu Biswas fully obliged to coach's view. He feels that such a camp of 12-14 days would do a world for good for the players.
After the Cobra training by East Bengal and Mongoose training by Mohun Bagan, let us wait and watch what's Shabbir's team up to!
