SteveC Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) Tonight, the clubs present at the meeting have decided to proceed with an Under 21s League in Fife. There are 6 definite starters and awaiting for two more responses. We are hoping the fact that this WILL go ahead, more Junior and Amateur clubs will be interested and join the ranks. The teams committed are Aberdour Dundonald Bluebell Rosyth FC Jeanfield Swifts Kennoway Star Hearts Kelty Hearts Registrations will now be taken for interested clubs and they can do so firstly by registering online with the SYFA. Once registered players can be signed. These games will be played on Sundays at 2pm allowing the delayed transfer rule to help all concerned. The more teams involved the better for Fife Football as a whole. Thanks, Steve Edited June 1, 2015 by SteveC number4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariner Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Nice to see a Fife U21's league back SteveC and number4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveC Posted June 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 We can now add Glenrothes Strollers to the list. A few more would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariner Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 what about Inverkeithing, do they not have a team in the Edinburgh U21 league Would be a great idea if some jnr clubs formed an U21 team.........good feeder system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty mac Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Swifts have teams of all age groups in Edinburgh, they wouldn't choose to play in Fife imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariner Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 all age groups? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty mac Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Yeah. Perhaps one or two ages but almost all age groups play in Edinburgh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
number4 Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) Rosyth , Kelty, Dundonald,Jeanfield and kennoway juniors are putting teams in Mariner and looking at it as feeder teams for the future . To me its a great opportunity to have a fife league again that will fill the gap from 19s to juniors or amateurs . lets get more teams involved as there are plenty of talent out there that might get lost to the game.

houstie73 Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 (edited) 02s and 03s in fife set up scotty Edited June 4, 2015 by houstie73 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty mac Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 I probably exaggerated with all, but the U21's, U19's, U14's are all in Edinburgh and the U19's were U17's that played in Edinburgh last year so they won't move to Fife imo. Think at the younger age groups the best 04's, 05's, 06's, 07's and 08's all play in Edinburgh too. Think the U21 league is a good idea for fife, especially if it keeps boys playing together longer and allows boys to help out junior, could be a good pathway.

mgm Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Are the 19s not leaving the Swifts to set up to play U21s with Hutchie Vale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty mac Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 I wouldn't have thought so, most of the Swifts are eligible for another year at U19's I thought as are Hutchie so doubt they'd move up to U21's when both will probably do really well next year at U19s. Hutchie don't have an U21 side at present so maybe they are trying to get this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
