While the end of March has seen the England men's team congregate at St George's Park for their Euro 2024 qualifiers against Italy and Ukraine, 45 miles away in Cheshire another side is meeting for an important training camp of their own.
In June, England's Amputee Football Association will head to the European Games in Poland where, for the very first time, four countries will compete in the Nations League. The tournament will come less than 12 months after England finished ninth at the World Cup and while there was disappointment at the national team's elimination against Angola, Owen Coyle Jr's side rallied well to beat Poland, Japan and Argentina to secure a respectable ranking.
Coyle has since stepped aside from his duties with Scott Rogers, who had been part of the set-up for two years prior, taking the reigns as interim head coach. It is no secret that the Nations League will be a tough test for England as Poland, Spain and Turkey await them in the summer.
