Wycombe Wanderers Youth Team Info This page aims to collate Wycombe Wanderers Youth Team matches since the Club entered the Football League in 1993/94 season. The Youth Team initially played in the South East Counties League and then at the start of the 1999/2000 campaign, transfered to the newly formed Football League Youth Alliance. They continued to compete in this League until the end of the 2011/12 season. On 8th June 2012 it was announced that Wycombe Wanderers had closed their 'Centre of Excellence' with immediate effect. A joint statement from Wycombe Wanderers Football Club and Wycombe Wanderers Trust revealed the news and cited the increased demands of the Elite Player Performance Plan (EPPP) where Clubs could be limited to recieving a maximum of £70,000 in transfer fees for a player they had developed, as the main reason behind the decision. Read more and full statement In September 2024, just over 12 years after the Wycombe Wanderers 'Centre of Excellence' had closed, it was announced the Club had submitted plans to apply for a Category 4 Academy License for the 2025/26 season, with the facility housed at the Harlington Training Ground in West London. Wycombe Wanderers Academy Director Jeremy Sauer said at the time, “A Category 1 academy is a core part of the club’s vision for the future and we will work tirelessly towards achieving this goal. It is a gradual process and for now our efforts are centred towards preparing our Academy Licence application to begin an academy at Category 4 status. We are grateful to the EFL for its guidance to date and look forward to delivering a leading high-performance academy that will contribute positively to both our own and the EFL’s long-term goals.” |
