West Ham United’s Rush Green Training Ground was a hive of excitement and activity as members of the first-team squad returned for the first day of pre-season on Thursday.
Senior players who were not involved in international football during the summer underwent screening and scanning as head of medical services Richard Collinge and his staff checked the health of each player and set their data benchmarks for the coming season.
The involved players underwent cardiac checks, concussion tests, and a general physiotherapy screening before getting down to work in the gym. After lunch, the players then took to the pitches at Rush Green for a first training session of the 2023/24 campaign; one that will once again see West Ham play in Europe in the UEFA Europa League.
Our West Ham TV cameras were on hand to capture all the happenings from a busy first day of the 2023/24 campaign at Rush Green, and you can check out all the action in the video player above!
