The team watched Atlanta Braves in action against Arizona Diamondbacks on their first night and a growing number of Braves baseball caps have been spotted on the heads of players in between training sessions.

And on Monday, Eddie Howe and his coaching staff took things up a notch by organising an inter-squad tournament at the end of the team's recovery session following the 3-3 draw with Aston Villa in Philadelphia, PA.

There were three teams, with Joelinton, Sean Longstaff, Joe Willock, Matt Targett, Anthony Gordon, Ben Parkinson, Jacob Murphy, Lewis Miley, Nick Pope, Mark Gillespie and Jamaal Lascelles on the winning side.
