St Kilda football general manager Matthew Drain said the Saints were easing a handful of players back from "slight" injuries, but on the whole they had a clean bill of health.

The injury-free status has St Kilda buoyed as they set their sights on a second AFL premiership, and first since 1966.

Second-year coach Ross Lyon has already stated he believes the upcoming season promises to be among the most competitive in history - opening the premiership door for St Kilda.

Drain said St Kilda would have a couple of light days in Ballarat before stepping up with a full-on training session at Ballarat Grammar School on Wednesday morning.

This is when St Kilda and other football fans in Ballarat will get an opportunity to see how the Saints are shaping up.

Their only other ball work will be a light skills session at AUSTAR Arena tomorrow.

"It won't be much more than a `touch' session," Drain said.

"It'll give people a chance to see and meet the players."

Drain said the St Kilda visit was also a chance to renew ties with Ballarat which once saw the city producing a string of Saints stars and the natural flow-on of a significant supporter base.

As the St Kilda country recruiting zone, Ballarat developed the likes of champion full forward Tony Lockett, champion full back and longstanding captain Danny Frawley, Michael Malthouse, Val Perovic

and Greg Burns to name a few.

Drain said the community camp would not only give football fans an opportunity to see and meet the Saints, getting away together would also give players a chance to do some bonding before the start

of the season.

"It's a good chance for them to get away together."

Up to 250 people, including almost 200 football supporters, will attend the camp's official get together at the Ballarat Leagues Club tonight, while some 300 youngsters are expected to attend a superclinic

at AUSTAR Arena today.
