Black Queens hold first training session in Casablanca in readiness for international friendlies
The Black Queens have held their first training session at the Lanoria club equitation pitch in Mohammedia, Casablanca as part of their preparation for the Morocco training tour.
Nineteen players worked on the pitch under the guidance of Kim Lars Björkegren. The training lasted for about an hour with the players being put through their paces by Athletics Coach Jordan Daitey.
Training will continue at the same venue on Tuesday and Wednesday before moving to the Pére Jégo Stadium on Thursday.
