The 2021/22 fixtures for the Under-18 Premier League have been revealed and Chelsea will start our campaign with a home match at Cobham.
Our Under-18s’ league season will kick off at midday on Saturday 14 August, when we host West Bromwich Albion at our training ground, before consecutive away games at London rivals Tottenham Hotspur and Norwich City.
Ed Brand’s side conclude the campaign on the road, travelling to Southampton on Saturday 7 May for our last game of the Under-18 Premier League’s group stage.
The competition is split into two regional groups of 14 teams each, representing the north and south of England, with the two league winners meeting in a one-off final to decide the national champions. Chelsea are competing in the South Group.
The Academy will be attempting to bring the Under-18 national title back to Cobham for the first time since we recorded back-to-back triumphs in this competition in 2017 and 2018.
