Mawson has been responsible for working with a four-man group this week, consisting of Altay Bayindir, Senne Lammens, Dermot Mee and Academy stopper Fred Heath.
He says the time together away from home, in a different environment and with an alternative routine to a normal week at Carrington, has been a real benefit to both his goalkeepers and the group as a whole.
“Usually on a day-to-day [basis] we’re working individually from the group, with the smaller numbers it allows us to build those relationships, but it’s heightened a little bit more when you come away from the training ground because you’re spending a little bit of social time together as well,” Craig added.
“When you’re out here, it forges the links, builds the relationships, not just between goalkeepers but with the whole team and the staff as well.
“I’m really fortunate, it’s a fantastic working group, lots of different qualities, lots of different characters but the work ethic on a daily basis, the implementation of the session design and practices, and the willingness to try new things [makes me feel like] I’m very fortunate to be able to work with this group.”
