    At the start of each season, you will get a message in your inbox asking if you want your U23s and U18s to participate in leagues. Sometimes the board overrides the option and insists on the U18s taking part, whilst leaving it up to you about the U23s. Either way, you will still get the messages so keep an eye out for them.
    I couldn't tell you exactly when this happens but it will be approx in July, maybe a couple of weeks before the youth team leagues are set to begin.

    I started in the 10th tier of non league and my U23 and U18 squads didn't have any competitive games until we made it into League One. However, I did make sure that in the responsibilities -> matches section I ticked the boxes so that both squads would play a friendly every week if there were no fixtures; saved me having to arrange friendlies myself for them each week.

    edit: read this, apparently it's to do with your youth rating.

     

    Thank you for your help.

    Something I always take as a good sign of the tactic's progress.

    My under 23's got promoted without the help of any first team players (unlike Norwich who have several senior players in the squad, cheats!)

    This is their best player:

    The new manager is pretty exciting!

    Random question - I’m in my 5th season now and I’ve never had my Under 23’s in a league before. How do you do this? I’ve only ever had my Under 18’s n the 23’s have just played friendly games...

    I almost never use them.

    As mentioned in the OP, when I do use them I do it to solve a problem - i.e. a particular player is causing me problems, or they keep putting balls over the top.

    There's a nice example from someone else on page 1 somewhere.

     

    I've just started league 1, my signings so far are:

    Ben Sheaf - 200k (MC)
    Luke McGee - Free (GK)
    Max Kilman - 160k (DL)
    Conor Gallagher - Loan (MC)
    James Garner - Loan (DMC)
    Rhian Brewster - Loan (SC)
    Ethan Laird - Loan (DL/DR)
    Manu Appeh - Free (SC)
    David Concha - Free (AML)
    Atila Varga - Free (DC)
    Simone Icardi - Free (MC)
    Dani Morer - Free (DL/DR)
    Josh Cullen - Free (DMC)
    Angel Gomes - Loan (AMR/AML)
    Curtis Jones - Loan (AML)

    Oh those signings, Brewster and Icardi are amazing. 

    I don't play a first 11 as such.

    I aim for 22 good players and rotate two sets of 11 regularly.

    I find that even an extra 2-3% in fitness in condition makes a big difference to performance.

     

    Very nice, surprised you won matches while on holiday even! 


     

    Wow incredible to get some of those players in league 1!
