When Omari got to the training ground, he saw a few senior players doing a few training drills. He was told by one of the assistant coaches to join them.
After about ten minutes, all the other youth players arrived and Michael stopped the light training. According to him, they were going to have a light gym session after which they would play an eleven versus eleven training match. One match was supposed to last for an hour.
They went to the gym and did a light work out session. The other senior players felt a bit more at ease with Michael and occasionally joked around with him while Omari and the other newly promoted players were uptight and somewhat fearful when he was around them.
After the work out session, Michael divided the players into four groups. The first two groups had eleven players each while the last two had twelve players each.
