SONS will take part in the SPFL’s new under-20 development league in the season ahead, with the campaign making a start midweek in September.
Under the guidance of Colin Nish and Richie Salvetta, our lads will be part of the West Section with eight other clubs, playing a total of 24 matches – Airdrieonians, Annan Athletic, Ayr United, Clyde, Dumbarton, Morton, Queen of the South, Queen’s Park and Stranraer.
The winners of each division (East and West) will then take part in a two-legged play-off.
The SPFL Development League will have slightly different rules to that of the 19s previously contested by the Sons.
Up to five over-age players can be included in a match-day squad of 18 including a maximum of two trialists.
Sons kick off the season with a home game against Greenock Morton on Monday September 1st.
Full fixture list can be found here.
