The oldest age groups (U17 and U19) started on Monday evening in two mixed training groups. The youth players are advised not to travel to training together. “Our youth players arrive at and leave the site at different times,” explained Helmut Jungheim, director of the Bayer 04 Academy. The training sessions will involve set groups of four being involved in drills under the guidance of one coach per group.
League restart to be determined
Ahead of the suspension of the season due to the coronavirus pandemic, the U19s were in good shape in the Youth Bundesliga West having clocked up 13 out of a possible 15 points. Bayer04.de looked at the work of the youth section during the coronavirus pandemic (click HERE for the article).
