HUDDERSFIELD Giants’ youngest stars will be in great shape for the start of pre-season training.

That’s the prediction from Giants rehabilitation conditioner Greg Brown as the club prepares to gear up for the start of Super League XVII.

Pre-season training officially gets under way a week on Monday (November 7).

But Brown has already been putting the youngest members of the Super League squad through their paces.

And he knows this work will stand them in good stead when they join forces with the senior members of the squad in nine days’ time.

“The boys have been working really hard. It’s been tough,” said Brown.

“But the more hard work they put in now, the better they’ll be when they join up with the full squad. For the young members of the squad this period is absolutely vital.”
