The date currently listed for the FA Youth Cup Fixture is this Friday 7th September at Princes Park Stadium 19.30 KO. This is subject to change however at this late stage it is highly unlikely.
The squad for the season will be largely made up of the Kent Youth League squad with a few members of the Academy. The academy is largely first year and being that the club have only had contact with these players for a matter of weeks, it makes perfect sense for the KYL team to be fielded in this fixture. The KYL side had well documented success last season and with the addition of around 5 new players, the squad is shaping up to be a little stronger than last season.
All support will be hugely appreciated and obviously with such a derby fixture, would be nice to some Welling fans in the stands.
Post match info will be posted.
Also the KYL gets their season underway this Sunday at Phoenix Sports 11am Mayplace Road, all fixtures can be found on kentyouthleague.co.uk and the U18s are competeing in the Premier Division 2
