The Bangladesh Under-19 team will begin their skill training camp on October 01 at BKSP to kickoff their mission for the Youth World Cup 2022, reports BSS.

The skill training camp will continue for three weeks but it can be extended to four weeks.

Bangladesh, which is the defending champions of U-19 World Cup, initially formed the team with 47 members who did a four-week residential camp at the BKSP. The camp began on August 23 and lasted until September 18.

According to the performances of the players, BCB will now trim the squad to 30 members. Those who will be called up to the preliminary squad will be tested for Covid-19 this month.

Meanwhile, head coach Naveed Nawaz and trainer Richard Stonier have already returned to Dhaka to join the practice of the newly formed team.

"We will conduct a minimum three weeks skill training camp. It can be up to four weeks. It depends on the decision. We hope we can start from October 01." said BCB Game Development manager Abu Emam Mohammad Kawsar.
