VIDEO: Bohemians battle blizzard in pre-season training

League of Ireland clubs are in the middle of their pre-season schedules ahead of the 2017 campaign and when you're training in the depths of winter, you've got to be mindful of the elements.

However, Premier Division side Bohemians refused to let the snow put a freeze on their preparations after a blizzard enveloped Dublin on Thursday evening, with the club posting a video online showing their commitment to the cause.

Bohs supporters responded well to the footage, suggesting that it will toughen the players up, while others joked about the fact that the League of Ireland is known as a summer league.

Keith Long's players will be hoping their chilly experience will stand them in good stead in the upcoming months as they look to improve upon 2016's eighth-place finish.
