The Academy runs from u9 to u18. There are teams for each age group as far as Under 14's. After that it 15 & 16's play as an u16s team and the 17&18s play as u18's.
All age groups are part time, train in the evenings with occasion school release during the day.
Once in the u18s its a full time program training 4 days a week during the day just like the 23's and 1st team.
A few questions about the u18's.
Is it one team?
How many people are on the course (I take this as the squad) at any one time?
Where do I find the league?
Fionn O’Brien is an 18yo LB (I think) who was training with the Irish U19 squad this week. Assume that means he’s decent!Now Newton has gone, who is our 23s/18s lb? Reid was brought in but who else we got
O'Brien and Jay McGrath can both play LB I believe.Fionn O’Brien is an 18yo LB (I think) who was training with the Irish U19 squad this week. Assume that means he’s decent!

What is the School leaving age now? 16 before i moved out hereSurely the U18s have to be taking some kind of qualification as they’re not at school leaving age yet?

Is that just for football players or everyone?
9 U16s being given scholar contracts, some really good players amongst them who will no doubt follow in the Burroughs bros footsteps
Photos were done at the CBS yesterday so press release will be in the next few days I imagine!
I don't like naming academy lads on here just because they're still kids and it doesn't feel right, but when the list comes out I'd be looking at SY, LM, TS, and BS.
I'm unaware of the Sam who does the reports but I'm fortunate enough to occasionally work for the Academy
