NEWCASTLE United has taken the chill out of winter training by installing underfloor heating throughout its academy, from kitchens to physiotherapy rooms.

Myson has designed, supplied and installed 1,800sq metres of underfloor heating in the FA Barclaycard Premiership club's academy, in Greenlee Drive, Coach Lane, Newcastle.

Geoff White, underfloor director at Myson, said: "With the opening of this wonderful facility, I am sure the academy is likely to prove a massive hit when it opens, with youngsters looking to become the next Alan Shearer or Peter Beardsley.

"Myson Underfloor is delighted to be getting behind its local Premiership club and the stars of the future."
