Following a successful 2024/25 campaign for our U19s, we can provide an update on the squad ahead of the new season.
The U19s have been a hugely valuable addition to the Women's programme since forming in 2020, with regular Senior Team debuts.
In the 2024/25 season, Tom Stiley's side were crowned national champions following a penalty shootout win over Wrexham in the Play-Off Final.

Speaking about our U19s squad, Stiley said: “We’re really looking forward to the start of a new Adran U19 season. The league continues to grow in quality each year, promising another demanding but rewarding campaign. It’s great to have the squad back together, with some new additions joining last season’s group, and we’re eager to build on the success of the last campaign.
"We’ve had a competitive pre-season that has provided plenty of challenges and learning opportunities, and the players have responded with excellent energy and commitment - not only to raise the standards of the U19s league, but also to prepare themselves for the step into senior football. The pathway has already created valuable opportunities for players to move into the First Team and this year our aim is to challenge the group even further, across both development and senior competitions. We’re confident this squad can continue to progress, and it's shaping up to be another exciting season.”
