Youth Academy

 

What is the Youth Academy?

Our Youth Academy started in 2004 in Ahoghill, Ballymena. As a Club we have been on an incredible journey, and we have now grown to 300 players in different age groups from U5 to U16s. We offer sessions for all abilities with both a competitive and development category so everyone can be a part of the Youth Academy family.
