Brentford F.C. Reserves was the reserve team of Brentford. The reserve team played at varying times from 1900 until 2011. In the Summer of 2012, the English reserve football pyramid and youth system was overhauled under the Elite Player Performance Plan and replaced with a new Academy system and development leagues. Brentford's reserve team was relaunched as the Brentford Development Squad in 2011 and in 2012 began competing in Professional Development League 2 South. The Brentford Youth Development programme caters for approximately 140 players between the ages of 7 and 21, who fit within a five-tier development model. During each stage an age-appropriate programme is delivered to cater for the technical, tactical, physical and psychological needs of the individual players.[1]

Reserve Team

Background

Brentford Reserves was formed to give young players and first team players returning from injury game time in a competitive environment. The ever-changing structure of the game in England in the late 19th and early 20th centuries saw the Brentford reserve team included in leagues competing against the first teams of amateur clubs. On occasion, the reserve team would compete in two leagues simultaneously. The reserve team was dissolved in 2011, upon the Football League's acceptance of the Premier League's Elite Player Performance Plan, which replaced reserve teams with U21 Development Squads.[2] Winger Micky Ball made the most appearances for the reserve team, making 159 appearances, without having ever made a first team appearance.[3] Two other players made more than 150 reserve team appearances, Fred Ryecraft and Johnny Hales.[3]

London League (1900–1914)

The reserve team entered the London League Division One in the 1900–01 season, finishing 8th out of 11.[4] Following a demotion, the reserves were London League Division Two champions in 1902–03, earning promotion to Division One.[4] They finished third in Division One in the 1903–04 season and were promoted to the Premier Division for 1904–05, finishing in 8th place.[4] Bottom and second-from-bottom finishes saw the team back in Division One for the 1908–09 season, which saw the reserves promoted back to the Premier Division as champions.[4] They achieved their highest Premier Division placing in 1909–10, finishing fifth.[4] Mid-table finishes followed in the Premier Division until 1913–14 when, competing for the first time in an all-professional reserve league, Brentford Reserves finished bottom in their final season in the league before the suspension of competitive football due to the First World War.[5]

Great Western Suburban League (1905–1911)

The reserve team entered the Great Western Suburban League for the 1905–06 season and finished runners-up for two seasons in succession.[6] The reserves were champions in 1907–08, 1908–09 and 1910–11 and runners up in 1905–06, 1906–07 and 1909–10.[6] Their main rivals during those years were Reading Reserves, Hounslow and Shepherd's Bush. The 1910–11 title win (in which the side failed to win only two of their games, going the whole season unbeaten) forced the league's management to ban professional clubs from competing, which caused Brentford to leave the league.[7]

Football Combination (1919–1967, 1998–2004, 2009–2011)

The reserve team spent much of their existence competing in the Football Combination. Brentford Reserves were London Combination (as the Football Combination was known then) champions in 1931–32 and 1932–33.[8] The title-clinching game on 6 May 1933 against Aldershot Reserves was watched by a crowd of over 9000 at Griffin Park, the club record for a reserve team fixture.[9] A notable achievement was 43-game winning run at Griffin Park between November 1931 and November 1933.[10] Much of the success in those two seasons was down to the prolific goalscoring of Ralph Allen.[9] Overspending and the subsequent cutting of costs forced the club to disband the reserve team and quit the Football Combination in 1967.[8] The reserves rejoined the Football Combination for the 1998–99 season and a notable third-place finish was achieved in 2001–02.[11] The reserve team was folded by then-first team manager Martin Allen in 2004, but was relaunched for the 2009–10 season by then-first team manager Andy Scott and won election to the Football Combination Central Division.[12][13] The team played for two seasons before being replaced by the Brentford Development Squad in 2011.[14] In their final two seasons, the Reserves played their home games at Griffin Park.[15]

London Midweek League (1974–1984)

After the Brentford Reserve team was revived in 1974, the team entered the London Midweek League.[16] The team's best finish was as runners up in 1982–83.[8]

Capital Football League (1984–1998)

A reserve team was entered into the Capital Football League as founding members in 1984.[17] Throughout their time in the league, the reserves consistently competitive and won the title in 1987–88 and 1995–96.[18] The team were winners of the Capital Football League Cup in 1987–88, 1990–91, 1991–92 and 1994–95.[19]

Development Squad

Background

The Brentford Development Squad was launched in 2011 and played friendly matches during the 2011–12 season.[20] The Development Squad play their home matches at the club's training ground at Jersey Road, Osterley, The Beveree (home of Hampton & Richmond Borough) and a limited number of fixtures are played at Griffin Park.[21] The team is made up of U21 players and is allowed to field three overage outfield players and one overage goalkeeper, which enables first team players to get game time. Scholars are also eligible to play for the Development Squad. Towards the end of the 2012–13 season, Jake Reeves was the first Development Squad player to be awarded a first team contract.[22] Since the formation of the team, Charlie Adams, Josh Clarke and Mark Smith have also progressed to sign first team contracts.[23][24][25]

Professional Development League 2 South (2011–present)

The Development Squad entered the Professional Development League 2 South for the 2012–13 season and finished third, one place away from qualifying for the knockout stage. Luke Norris finished as top scorer, with 13 goals from 21 games and Charlie Adams led the team in appearances with 22.[26][26] The Development Squad had a poor second competitive season, ending 2013–14 second-from-bottom. Josh Clarke was the leading appearance-maker with 16 and first team midfielder Martin Fillo topped the goalscoring chart, scoring four times.[27] In the first managerial change in the side's history, Jon De Souza was replaced by Lee Carsley in October 2014.[28] Despite a run which amassed 26 points from a possible 39,[29] the team finished third-from-bottom in the 2014–15.[30] Aaron Greene was the leading appearance-maker with 25, while Jermaine Udumaga's 12 goals saw him called up for four first team matches in the second half of the 2014–15 season.[31][32] After Lee Carsley was promoted to first team manager in late September 2015, his assistant Kevin O'Connor temporarily took over the role of head coach until the appointment of Flemming Pedersen in January 2016.[33] The team entered the U21 Premier League Cup for the first time in the 2015–16 season,[34] reaching the quarter-finals.[35]

Youth Team

History (1893–2012)

A Brentford youth team won the West Middlesex Junior Cup in 1893–94.[36] The Brentford youth team reached the semi-finals of the FA Youth Cup in 1952–53, succumbing 8–1 on aggregate to the eventual winners Manchester United.[37] Under the stewardship of Alf Bew and because of the financial constraints imposed on the first team, the youth team of the early 1950s was particularly productive, yielding Vernon Avis, Johnny Pearson, Gerry Cakebread, Dennis Heath, Jim Towers and George Francis.[38] Following financial problems in 1967, the youth team was disbanded, but revived again in 1972 with money raised by supporters.[39] The youth team won a youth tournament in Frankfurt the following year, beating Frem in the final,[7] with Richard Poole top-scoring.[39] Along with Poole, Kevin Harding and Roy Cotton progressed to play league football with the first team, while Gary Huxley won England Youth international honours.[39] A youth team containing a young Keith Millen was crowned champions of the South East Counties Junior League in 1983–84.[40] A second FA Youth Cup semi-final was reached in 1988–89, in which Brentford were beaten by Watford.[37] After the dissolution of the South East Counties League, the youths later competed in the Football League Youth Alliance and were Division 1 South champions in 2001–02 and 2002–03.[41] The youths had a memorable run in the FA Youth Cup during the 2005–06 season, seeing off Arsenal (featuring future first team regulars Nicklas Bendtner, Alexandre Song and Vito Mannone) in the third round on penalties after extra time and finally succumbing 2–1 to Newcastle United in the fifth round.[42][43] The side enjoyed another run in the 2011–12 FA Youth Cup, seeing off Lewes, Southend United and Hull City before being knocked out in the fourth round by Stoke City.

Brentford U18 (2012–present)

Under the Elite Player Performance Plan, the Brentford Youth Team was officially renamed as the Brentford U18 team in 2012 (though it continues colloquially be known as the "youth team") and fields scholars and U16s. The U18s entered the Professional U18 Development League 2 South for the 2012–13 season, finishing bottom.[44] The U18 team reached the final of the Middlesex Senior Youth Cup in 2013, but were defeated 6–1 by Wealdstone.[45] George Pilbeam and Montell Moore were the leading appearance-makers during the 2012–13 season, with 20 appearances each.[46] Myles Hippolyte headed the goal chart, scoring seven times.[46] The U18s finished 2013–14 season second-from-bottom in the Professional U18 Development League 2 South table. Courtney Senior was a leading appearance-maker, while Montell Moore was top scorer, scoring 9 goals in 16 games.[47] In December 2014, the team was invited to take part in the prestigious IMG Cup: Boys Invitational at the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida and finished the tournament tied in fifth position with United States U17.[48] Late in the 2014–15 season, the U18s qualified for the Professional U18 Development League 2 South knockout stage for the first time, after finishing second to Charlton Athletic in the league stage.[49] The team progressed to the final of the knockout stage, suffering a 1–0 defeat to Charlton Athletic.[50] Ten second-year scholars graduated from the U18 team to sign professional contracts in April 2015,[51] the generation which had previously won the Junior category at the 2012 Milk Cup while U15s.[52]

Other Teams

'A' Team

A third Brentford team, known as Brentford 'A', competed in the Seanglian League in 1959–60, finishing in mid-table.[53] The 'A's fared worse the following season, finishing second from bottom and was disbanded.[53] The side was managed by former first team goalkeeper Ted Gaskell, with Eddie Lyons as his assistant.[54]

Youth Alliance

Two teams, Brentford Griffins and Brentford Bees, participate in the Football Conference Youth Alliance.[55][56] The teams are made up of a partnership with West Thames College that sees boys between the ages of 16-18 train with the academy three times a week, with the hope of finding a route back into football, while also studying for BTEC courses at the college.[57] The sides played their inaugural seasons in 2014–15,[55] with Brentford Griffins winning the London & South East division title.[58] Despite the title win, coach Dan Wright revealed that the teams had fallen short of providing new scholars for the academy.[59]

Academy

Centre Of Excellence

The Brentford Centre Of Excellence was formed to nurture youth talent and was headed by Barry Quin, Director Of Youth Football at the club for twenty years.[60] Quin was succeeded in the role by Ose Aibangee in 2010.[61] The Centre Of Excellence was shut down in 2013.[62]

Academy beginnings, planning and function

Plans to upgrade the Centre Of Excellence to an Academy began in 2010 after the takeover of the club by Matthew Benham. In December 2012, permission was granted by Hillingdon Council’s South and Central Planning Committee for Brentford to build a Category Two Academy on the grounds of Uxbridge High School.[63] The Academy facility was paid for by the club, with a contribution from the school. In July 2013, the Academy was awarded Category Two status for the next three years.[62] Brentford were the only League One club to make the advance from a Centre Of Excellence to a Category Two Academy.

At the official opening of the Academy in January 2014, Ose Aibangee predicted that by 2019, a Brentford academy graduate will be selected for the England national team.[64] In April 2014, after the first team's promotion to the Championship for the 2014–15 season, then-U18 defender Richard Bryan said he believed that the academy could step up to produce players to play at Championship level, saying "for all the players here that want to get into the first team, it is definitely another step up and a harder challenge, but they have got to step up to the plate and be ready for it. There is a hunger in the team and in the coaches".[65] An indicator of the academy beginning to bear fruit was evidenced by the call ups of Josh Bohui, Harry Francis and Ross McMahon to England and Scotland youth-level training camps respectively during the 2014–15 season.[66][67][68] Julius Fenn-Evans won Wales U16 caps in April 2015,[69] Ian Carlo Poveda represented England at U16 level in August 2015 and Josh Bohui made his England U17 debut in February 2016.[70][71]

Facility

The Brentford Academy is based in an indoor facility on the grounds of Uxbridge High School and became fully operational in November 2013.[72] The Academy building contains a 60m x 50m third-generation AstroTurf pitch, learning zones, changing rooms, a gym and a physiotherapy room. The Academy was officially opened on 16 January 2014 by FA chairman and former Brentford chairman Greg Dyke.[73]

Teams

U17

The U17 team played outside the United Kingdom for the first time when they journeyed to the Netherlands for a friendly match against AZ Alkmaar's Academy on 29 October 2013, with Brentford running out 4–1 winners.[74] The U17s entered the Milk Cup for the first time in 2014, going out on penalties to Club América in the Premier Section Globe semi-final.[75]

U16

On 29 October 2014, the U16s took on a Barcelona youth team in a prestigious friendly at La Masia. Brentford took the lead through Danny Parish, but lost 2–1.[76] 12 members of the 2014–15 team signed scholarship deals in April 2015.[77]

U15

Brentford made its Milk Cup debut in 2010,[78] finishing 23rd out of 24 entries.[79] The U15s team winners of the Junior category at the 2012 Milk Cup, seeing off CSKA Moscow and Liverpool along the way and beating Everton in the final.[80][81][52] The U15s again competed in the Junior category in 2013 Milk Cup and lost 3–2 to a Japan FA team in the Junior Vase final.[82] The team were 2–1 victors over Inter Milan U15 in a friendly played at the Italian club's academy on 17 April 2014.[83] At the 2014 Milk Cup, the U15s won the Junior Globe.[84] The U15s were victorious in the 2015 Sportfan Football Festival in Lithuania, beating Skonto FC in the semi-finals and FM Vilnius in the final.[85]

U11

In June 2014, an U11 side entered the 28-team Holstein Cup (held in Bad Oldesloe, Germany) and finished third in the tournament, behind Hertha 03 Zehlendorf and Borussia Mönchengladbach.[86] In late February 2015, Brentford hosted a prestigious England vs Germany U11 tournament, featuring sides from the academies of Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Bayern Munich, Hertha Berlin, Hannover 96 and Schalke 04.[87] Brentford won the Silver Group to finish runners-up in the tournament, behind Manchester United.[88] The U11s took part in the Mediterranean International Cup in April 2015, going out to Valencia in the last 16.[89]
