The fixtures for the 2023/24 U18s Premier League season have been released.

City will be aiming to become National champions for a fourth successive campaign after becoming the first team in history to win a hat-trick of titles last season.

We have also won the U18 Premier League North title for the past four years and last season’s National final success came after a 2-1 win over West Ham at the Etihad Stadium.

Ben Wilkinson’s side start their title defence at home to Blackburn Rovers on Saturday 26 August.
