"First, there's Foxmere Cubs," Teddy said. "They're a Youth League B side here in England. They didn't qualify for the Ascension League, but they're physical and organized. It would be a good test for our strength."
Maddox considered it. "And the others?"
"Bayer Nachwuchs XI in Germany," Teddy continued. "They've qualified for the Ascension League from the Kaiser Youth League B. They'd come to us. They're very technical and very disciplined."
"And the third?"
"Jong SV Merwede in the Netherlands," Teddy said. "They're based in Sportpark De Toekomst. They've qualified as well. The Dutch style is all about total football and high pressing. It would be an away game for us."
Maddox looked at the list. He didn't want to play it too safe, but he also didn't want to overwork the boys before the flight to Spain.
