Budding footballers were given a rare treat recently when former Hibs and Scotland striker Garry O’Connor helped take a training session.
The youngsters at Bathgate Thistle Blues 2014 were joined by the former pro at Bathgate Academy as he put them through their paces alongside the team’s head coach Kev Reid and coaches David Henney, Glenn McFarlane and Derek McMillan.
O’Connor, who now runs his own football academy since retiring from the game, passed on some tips to the keen players.
