Wikipedia - Melbourne City FC Youth
Melbourne City Football Club Youth is the youth system of Melbourne City Football Club based in Cranbourne East, Melbourne. The youth team plays in the NPL Victoria 2, the second tier of Victorian football in Australia and the hiatus A-League Youth competition. The club also fields under-21s, under-18s, and three other academy teams within the NPL Victoria system.
History
Early years (2011–2014)
The team was founded in 2011 as Melbourne Heart Youth, the season after their senior side Melbourne City (then known as Melbourne Heart FC), made their A-League debut. The inaugural manager was John Aloisi before he accepted the role as head manager at the end of the 2011–12 season. From 2012 onwards, Joe Palatsides had been the manager. The youth team's first match was played in the 2011–12 against local rivals Melbourne Victory in a 2–0 win at John Cain Memorial Park.
Entry into National Premier Leagues (2014–2018)
On 7 November 2014, it was confirmed that Melbourne City would compete in the NPL Victoria 1 competition from the 2015 season onwards. The team consists mainly of Melbourne City's youth team, which also competes in the A-League Youth. On top of this, Melbourne City opted to send a U-20 team to enter the concurrently-run development-level U-20 NPL league competition.
The team finished on top of the table of the 2014–15 National Youth League, tied with Brisbane Roar FC Youth on both points and goal difference but were awarded the title having scored a greater number of goals.
After several seasons competing in the NPL, Melbourne City announced they were expanding their participation to also enter teams into the U-18 and U-15 competitions. In February 2018, youth teams joined the National Premier Leagues for the under-20s and under-18s sides, with the U-18 side being managed by Davey van 't Schip (the brother of former manager John van 't Schip).
Der Verein trägt seine Heimspiele im ABD Stadium aus, das 5.000 Zuschauern Platz bietet. Die Vereinsfarben sind Hellblau und Weiß.
Melbourne City NPL hat in seiner kurzen Geschichte bereits einige Erfolge erzielt. 2016 gewann der Verein den FFA Cup, den australischen Pokalwettbewerb. Im selben Jahr erreichte der Verein auch das Finale der National Premier Leagues Victoria, unterlag dort aber dem South Melbourne FC.
2017 gewann Melbourne City NPL die National Premier Leagues Victoria und qualifizierte sich damit für die National Premier Leagues Finals Series, die australische Meisterschaft der zweiten Ligen. Dort erreichte der Verein das Halbfinale, unterlag aber dem Sydney United 58 FC.
Melbourne City NPL ist ein aufstrebender Verein mit viel Potenzial. Der Verein verfügt über eine gute Nachwuchsarbeit und hat in den letzten Jahren einige talentierte Spieler hervorgebracht. In Zukunft könnte der Verein den Sprung in die A-League schaffen.
