After a disappointing start to their SAFIB Centenary Shield campaign, the England U18 Schoolboys look to get their first points on the board when they travel to face their Welsh Counterparts at Britton Ferry AFC on Thursday 28th March. England shared the Centenary Shield with Wales in 2023 and with the Welsh getting off to a good start to their defence of the trophy with a 4-2 win over Scotland, this is a crucial game for the young England players.
England kicked off the Centenary Shield on the 23rd February with an away trip to Northern Ireland, suffering a 3-0 defeat. You can watch the full replay of that fixture here and read all about it via the match report here.
After this upcoming trip to Wales, the England U18 Schoolboys will return to home soil to play the Republic of Ireland at Walsall FC on Friday 5th April before rounding off their campaign against Scotland at Chesterfield FC on Friday 12th April. These games will be streamed live via ESFA TV and tickets are available to purchase via our events page here.
