00:00Yes, obviously the Dude Perfect International Tournament is probably the highlight of the year for all the Academy kids.

00:05There's a few lucky ones who get to be involved every year, and sometimes a few of them get to do it a couple of times, which is amazing.

00:11But even from a coach's point of view, this is one we've looked at this date and look forward to for a few weeks now.

00:17So the preparations have been really good lately.

00:20And once the groups came out, we got to see all the teams, we're really excited and all the kids are buzzing for it.

00:25So we're really looking forward to this weekend.

00:27The tournaments you usually play, this is rare, if we go to another country, we play against local teams,

00:32we might play against the teams from that country.

00:34But when it's a real proper international tournament, we're going to play against a German team today.

00:38We're going to play against Chelsea, one of the best teams in this country.

00:41We're going to play against a team from a different continent in America.

00:44So how often do we get this? It's an amazing experience for the kids.

00:47Last year, unfortunately, we didn't top the group, but we did get into the second phase, into the plate.

00:53And we had an amazing time. We won the tournament actually, that phase of it.

00:57Got to play against some really good teams, played against one of the La Liga teams in the final.

01:00We still have great memories from that.

01:02So it's great that even if it doesn't go anywhere early on, you do have something else to play for.

01:06But obviously we want to do our best in the tournament.

01:09These are the first team training pitches. These are the guys that they get to watch at the weekend.

01:13We're so lucky to have this. Everything's immaculate and credit to the ground staff as well.

01:18The pitches look really good today. So football conditions wise, we couldn't ask for any more.

01:23No, you shouldn't have been working any more.

01:24Great.

01:25Awesome.
