PEEBLES Ams have kicked off pre-season training and have confirmed their management team for the forthcoming Border Amateur campaign.

Boss Barry Thomson heads up the coaching staff with Mark Blaik remaining as his assistant.

Former Ams manager Jason Brown returns to the club to be part of the backroom staff alongside Ams stalwart Craig Murdoch.

Thomson said: “We were encouraged by the good turnout at our first pre-season session on Tuesday and I want to encourage more people to join us.

“I was manager for eight games at the end of last season and was delighted to win the Sanderson Cup in that time.

“Now we want to push on and win the C Division.” Training takes place at 7pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays at Kerfield Park although next week the Tuesday session is moving to the Monday.
