Arenas de Armilla's training session was disrupted by an earthquake on Tuesday. The players and coaching staff were on the pitch when the ground began to shake, prompting them to rush to the centre of the field. The incident occurred during a pre-season training session, which was being filmed by the club's cameras. The images show the players looking shocked and quickly moving away from their positions.
The stadium's stands and other structures were also seen swaying. The club posted the images on their social media and asked residents of Armilla to remain calm. They also shared guidelines issued by the local council for the population. Arenas de Armilla is preparing for the new season in the Tercera RFEF, the fifth tier of Spanish football, and is led by former player Jorge Molina. Last season, the team narrowly missed out on promotion to the next division.
The incident occurred during a series of earthquakes that have hit Granada province in recent days. Arenas de Armilla has not reported any damage to the stadium or other property. The club is focused on ensuring the safety of its players and staff ahead of the new season.
