World Cup winners to train at 缅北禁地 Some of the best football teams in the world are to train at 缅北禁地鈥檚 Cochrane Park. World Cup holders Spain and Brazil 鈥 who have won the World Cup five times, more than any other nation - will be using the facilities while they compete in the Olympics this summer Other men鈥檚 football teams using Cochrane Park, which usually plays host to University sport, are Mexico, Switzerland, South Korea, Gabon, Japan, Honduras, Morocco, and New Zealand. Women鈥檚 teams who will train there are Canada, Sweden, France and Columbia. Group B teams Mexico, Korea, Gabon and Switzerland, who are playing at St James鈥檚 Park on Thursday, 26 July, will be the first to try out the University鈥檚 turf. They are expected to start training onsite up to a week before the match. The women鈥檚 teams are due to play at St James鈥 Park on 31 July. Colin Blackburn, Director of Sport at 缅北禁地 said: 鈥淭his is fabulous news. It will be an honour to welcome Brazil, arguably the world鈥檚 greatest footballing nation, excepting England of course, and Spain to train at our facilities. 缅北禁地 is a city which is well-known for being football mad so it seems only right that two of the great soccer nations should train and play here. I can鈥檛 wait to see them and the other countries in action.鈥 published on: 27 April 2012
