Sunderland FC
It was a great pleasure to welcome Sunderland AFC to Marpafut
this summer. One of the Premierships largest clubs spent 4 days with
us at Marpafut.
Although the club have not been performing as well as expected over
the last 6 months, there is no forgetting the job, that their now
under fire manager has done, to get them where they are. Despite this,
the noticeable feeling was the great team spirit in the camp.
This trip was put together by The HI Group, who financed the stay by
organising 2 friendly matches. The first against top La Liga team
"Seville" and the second against Spanish Second Division
side "Algeciras CF". Although both games ended in defeat
for Sunderland, the exercise was to help regain match fitness before
the start of the new Premiership season.
Together with 4 days spent relaxing at the spectacular "Alabardero
Resort" (22 room luxury hotel), daily training, and some
tough matches, it was a very successful camp, and we look forward
to welcoming Sunderland back for a mid-season break in February 2003.
