You 'orrible lot... Army puts Leeds United squad through their paces: VIDEO
LEEDS United players got a military-style workout as they took part in a team-building session with the Army.
Players from the club's first team, manager Simon Grayson and support staff joined soldiers from the Yorkshire Regiment to complete an Army assault course and work their way through military-themed problem solving.
The training exercises were staged at the Queen Elizabeth Barracks in Strensall on the outskirts of York, and the players also had a chance to try out their marksmanship skills on a laser range.
The club has developed close links with the Yorkshire Regiment, and soldiers were given their Afghanistan operational service medals during a recent ceremony at the Elland Road stadium.
