Last season Yanga went to Morocco to set up a training camp for the new season. However, the camp only lasted for about five days after the emergence of an expected events
The challenge of covid-19 and other players being called up to the national teams, led Yanga to stop the camp on August 24 to return to Tanzania while other players remained in Morocco to wait for covid-19 test results
Half of the players returned to Dar August 28, one day before the peak of Mwananchi week
As a result, Yanga lost the Mwananchi week game against Zanaco and later lost two matches of the champions league against Rivers United after lacking good preparation
The leaders of Yanga this season have learned, maybe that's why they canceled the Turkish camp after time not being friendly
After a long and successful season for Yanga, it was necessary for the players to have time to rest
Yanga ended all competitions on July 02 with the FA Cup final game against Coastal Union
Actually, for the remaining time leading up to Mwananchi week (August 06), it will not be profitable for Yanga to go camping abroad
They will waste a lot of time traveling to and fro while camping here in the country will only need a few hours
Here in Tanzania there are quiet places where Yanga can set up camp to prepare for the new season such as Black Rhino Academy (Karatu) and even Morogoro (Bigwa)
Actually, they can decide to stay even at Avic Town to make their preparations
Last season Yanga lacked good preparation unlike their rivals Simba who went to Morocco early and stayed there for about three weeks
But at the Community Shield they were beaten by Yanga whose camp was hit by disasters
Whether it is Turkey, Karatu, Morogoro or even Avic Town, the training the players will do are the same
