academy preview

Wanderers U19s are back in action this weekend (Saturday) to take on Burton Albion in the Youth Alliance League. 

Julian Darby’s young Whites sit top of the table after a stomping 7-0 victory against Bradford City last weekend, whilst also having a game in-hand on Wrexham - who sit in second. 

Wanderers’ youth team remain unbeaten in all competition this season after stretching the streak to 12 matches with a win at Lostock last weekend. 

The Brewers come into the tie sat in 9th place coming off the back of a 4-4 draw against Blackpool at Bamber Bridge last time out. 

Academy Manager Dave Gardiner on the U19s performance so far this season: “Overall I'm so pleased with the start to the season, we have a very young squad but really believe in all of our individual players and they have all contributed massively to some outstanding performances. 

"It is also important to recognise all of the hard work going on behind the scenes by all of the academy staff in all departments allowing us to lead the way on all fronts.” 

Kick-off at Lostock is 11am. Supporters are advised that there is no parking available on site and are asked to arrive no sooner than 15 minutes before kick-off.
