Emdad Rahman

The Sylhet District over 50s legends have concluded team training and trials in preparation for the 2016 Sylhet District Cup, which takes place in London on 6th November. Participants took part in short games and fitness drills and practised in-game tactics and formations.

“It’s been another good session with these senior players, and everyone has impressed while displaying great tactical acumen,” said manager Emdad Rahman. “We will have a tough job selecting a squad from the pool of talent we have, but that’s what we are there for.”

Assistant manager Abdul Kahar expressed his confidence: “We agreed on two training sessions in advance. These are players aged 50 and over, and it’s important to avoid burn out. The skill levels within the squad are high and we hope that the training plans we have implemented along with advice on dieting and frequent exercise will continue to be of benefit even after the tournament. This is what it’s all about.”
