After a lengthy selection process, we are delighted to announce our Redcar & Cleveland District U15s squad for the 2026/27 season.

This year’s selection was incredibly difficult.

📱 PARENT INFORMATION

Can all parents/guardians of players named above please contact Reece via WhatsApp on 07450 886098 to be added to the team communication group. Further information regarding fixtures, training and upcoming events will be shared through this group.

The players named in the Wider Training Squad remain a very important part of the district setup. They will continue to train with the squad and will be invited to participate in friendly fixtures throughout the season. In addition, should any selected squad members become unavailable for league fixtures, players from the Wider Training Squad will be called upon and given the opportunity to represent Redcar & Cleveland District.

Selection is also not closed. As the season progresses, we will continue to monitor players across the district and invite additional players into the Wider Training Squad where appropriate. Football development is an ongoing process, and we want to ensure that every player has the opportunity to earn a place within the district programme through their performances, attitude and commitment.

We would like to thank every player who attended the trials. The quality on display made the decisions extremely challenging, which is a testament to the strength of football talent across Redcar & Cleveland.

We now look forward to working with both the selected squad and the wider training group as we prepare for the season ahead.

Congratulations to all players and their families. We are excited to see what this group can achieve together. 💙💛
