A comfortable 7-1 opening win for our U18 at the University of South Wales sports complex in Treforest, which is where Pontypridd United play. The match was played on a grass pitch next door to the 3G turf that the senior Pontypridd side uses for its Cymru League fixtures. The weather took a turn for …

Our U18s went down rather meekly today, losing 2-0 to a more committed Cardiff side in the sun at Landore. We were missing a number of key players, including Jack Fanning, Iestyn Jones, Yori Griffith and of course Aimar Govea (who was there today in the stand with Filip Lissah). Our U15 / U16 contingent …
A comfortable 2-0 win today for what was again a very young Swans U18 squad today, beating PD(North) opponents Barnsley. We fielded a couple of academy debutants: 15 year old goalkeeper Tom Wright was a late change to the announced team line-up, he’s been a substitute previously; centre back Kaven Bloniarczyk played the whole 2nd …

A good learning experience for a very young team today and against a very capable opposition. There was clearly an intent to rest or reduce the potential for injury prior to next Wednesday’s PDL Cup Final at Millwall. No Tom Woodward, Yori Griffith, Cam Llewellyn or Tom Searle.

We went down 3-1, but – although the game was frequently stretched end to end – our youngsters more than matched their opponents in terms of creating pleasing passages of play and clear opportunities.

It was though a really strong all round performance by our youngsters. Our line-up was quite fluid, but essentially 4-1-4-1: Kit …
