Great end of the season for us as we claim the Knockout Cup West last night at Bonnyton. Ended up loosing 1 of our last 14 games which was against Bonnyrigg Rose in the Challenge Cup semi final.

Will it be much the same team next year or are some now overage ?

97 teams this season in the U20s development league,  wow, that's something else 👍.
Think it was 88 last year with about 10 folding.

Any idea why Kilwinning and Bonnington are not in group f with the rest of Ayrshire teams ?

Can only guess if being fair

As development football is in its infancy in the Wes,  the league are doing everything they think is best for it to succeed

I think in the future the Ayrshire teams will be mixed with the rest of the teams, that is what is wanted by the hierarchy of the Lowland development league committee and everyone else connected, most teams, coaches etc...

Last year the decision was to put all Ayrshire U20s teams in the same league due to the U20s being new and they thought it was best that there was as little travelling as possible to give the teams less expenses to run, there was a few traditional central teams included but they were, probably deemed the closest teams to Ayrshire.

The only thing i can think of is that they kept most in the same league due to many folding last year, again , maybe hoping to not put a strain on their money

But the Ayrshire league (14 teams), still has 6 traditional central area teams so there is an exciting interest and quite a few excellent sides Arthurlie and the young excellent Benburb side

The teams from the central area are 
Arthurlie
Benburb
Neilston
Renfrew
St Cadocs
St Peters

 

I'm personally looking forward to getting to  a lot of grounds on Friday nights to see the quality on show and potential stars of the future

It should be an interesting season , a lot of young teams playing against lads a couple of years older , positive in that is they will have 2or 3 years in this league .

Oklahoma Rangers 0-7 Vale of Leven u20s. 

Oklahoma Rangers are an American youth team who are on a UK tour just now. Our 20s were selected to be their local opposition at the Rangers Training Centre tonight. Good performance from our boys, looked really sharp, especially considering it was our first game of preseason with a vastly different team to last year. The Americans had a couple of really tidy looking players, but the rest weren't up to the West of Scotland under 20s standard. Good night, always nice to see something a bit different in preseason.
