Shrimpers get scientific
Morecambe have taken a scientific approach in their preparations for the new season.
The Shrimps' squad have been put through their places by a team of sport scientists at Edge Hill University.
They underwent a range of different tests designed to examine football-specific fitness such as speed, agility and speed endurance.
Shrimps fitness coach Danny Birdsall said: "The scientific tests are designed to give the coaching team a view of an individual player's fitness and enable us to prescribe individual and team fitness plans for the season."
