The squad recently returned from a two-week training camp in Barbados.The weather's been brutal here, so we were very lucky to get to Barbados for two weeks training outdoors in 30 degrees," Peters added.With money tight at the club, the players contributed money to enable the trip to take place.It's been a shock getting back as even though it's dry, it's bitterly cold, but it's a case of getting on with it and showing the determination to get your work done. We didn't put the whole lot in but put in a good amount," Peters continued.Alex Wakely will be Peters' new vice-captain in the Championship and will lead the side in the one-day formats. It was important to get away. I know the supporters' association put money in too and I hope the players' contribution shows our commitment."We were all fed up and at rock bottom but a lot of honest truths came out of it - there's a fresh drive and determination to take anyone on this year.It has been a winter of upheaval at the County Ground after the side finished eighth in County Championship Division Two and bottom of their group in both the Friends Life t20 and CB40 last season, with Peters taking over from Andrew Hall as club captain and a number of changes to the squad.
