The fantastic opportunity to visit the Kirkby base came courtesy of a competition run by LFC Official Membership earlier this summer.
A tour of the complex and its state-of-the-art facilities got the day underway, before Academy director Alex Inglethorpe met the 20 prize-winners.
He talked his guests through the training session he was about to put the U18s team through – and the visitors then watched on from the sidelines.
Having witnessed the action on the pitch, the Teen Members were next whisked off for media training with Steve Hothersall of LFCTV and Radio City.
The presenter and reporter spoke to the group about his background and offered crucial tips on how to handle yourself in front of the camera when talking to the media.
