Scots sign the pledge
The cream of Scotland's young talent gathered in Glasgow yesterday as preparations began in earnest for the Under-20 World Cup in Canada.
As they arrived at the team hotel, each member of the Under-20 squad signed the pledge and consented to abstain from alcohol for up to a month.
Coach Tommy Wilson handed his players an incentive to do well in the tournament when he told them they would be allowed to leave the Temperance League and have a drink if they reach the final in Toronto on July 22.
