After recharging his batteries on holiday in Greece and whilst spending time with his family in Iud, Belgium, Senne Lynen began pre-season alongside his teammates last Monday. After a tough first week of training, the Green-Whites are now moving onto the most intense part of next season’s preparations: the training camp. It will be Lynen’s first with SVW, who arrived in Bremen last summer right at the end of pre-season. “I’m pleased that I will be able to participate in the entirety of next season’s preparations and travel to the training camp,” the 25-year-old looked ahead to the upcoming ten days. “I’ve never been there, but I really like mountains, and I’ve only heard positive things about Zillertal.”
Building connections on and off the pitch
For many of his teammates, the training camp in Zillertal is as much a part of pre-season as Werder is to Bremen. Together with the great training facilities, the accommodation plays a key role: “The lads have told me how great it is there. We have the place to ourselves,” added Lynen, for whom the team bonding amongst the group is as crucially important as the hard work on the pitch. “When you only do a four-day camp, all you do is train, train, and train again,” explained the Belgian. “Ten days is a long time for a training camp. That gives us free time and the opportunity to do things together and build a closer connection to each other.”
These connections should also help them on the pitch. “Of course football comes first, but we need to better get to know one another off the pitch, especially the new players.” They’ll be looking to pick up where Ole Werner’s team left off at the end of last season: as a team that has gelled together and plays as a unit. “We need to keep working as we did at the end of last season and during the first week here in Bremen. We’re on a good path.”
