Steve Hope presents images from Monday's training session, as the Iron gear up for a trip to face Chester this weekend.
Last week a duo of Iron players Cal Roberts and Ross Barrows visited one of the many partner schools of the Iron Foundation in the form of Barton St Peter’s.
The players arrived at the school and headed straight to the classroom where they took time to answer student’s questions, this was before they headed outside to take part in the children’s kick-up and handball challenges.
