It is not just the Barclays Premier League's footballers who are being put through their paces this pre-season. The summer is also an important time for other departments within the country's leading clubs as they gear up for the new season.
Premierleague.com caught up with Arsenal's Stadium Manager Mark Pearce to find out what the team responsible for the upkeep of the iconic Emirates Stadium have been up to over the summer.
What is the role of the Stadium Manager?
"The role of the Stadium Manager is to prepare the stadium for the advent of 60,000 people arriving at the venue on a matchday. The stadium manager ensures the stadium has all the necessary certificates and maintenance requirements in place and that all the testing has been done in order to ensure that when we hand things over on an event day, the safety manager can run the event. It's coordinating everything to make sure the stadium is fit for purpose every day."
