Youth Squad
Main article: Youth Squad
On youth squad (YS) you can directly move each week, a junior player up into the senior team. You don't have any choice in what kind of junior player you'll get, apart from choosing between a goalkeeper or an outfield player.
Remember that many small constant investments are more efficient than a few occasional large ones. You need to decide the investment to raises the level of the YS. Every week you're allowed to make in your junior squad:
- a large investment of 20 000 € (it will take anyway 2 seasons to rise to the top level),
- a medium investment of 10 000 € (the squad will not improve beyond passable),
- or a small one of 5 000 € (your squad will only rise to inadequate).
Be prepared to be very patient as it might take some time before your investment pays off with reasonably able juniors. Even if we only talk about probabilities, the better the level of youth squad, the greater the chances to pull out a good player are.
Dropping your YS investment from maximum investment to 0 will cause your YS to deteriorate by one level per week. If you then decide to start re-investing, you'll find that increasing the levels takes just as long second time around as it did the first.
Youth Academy
Main article: Youth Academy
The Youth Academy is a less old-fashioned system. It has a team that can compete against other youth academy teams in a Youth league. The youth players do not receive any wages, but the youth matches don’t give any profit either.
Only after 11 weeks (i.e. 11 scout reports) your youth team will be completely filled with your own youth players. Until then your youth team will be filled up with "the neighbour’s kids". These are players, who for the most part, are without considerable capacities.
It’s NOT possible or buy players who are in the youth team. Also, the transfers between your youth squad and the senior squad is one way traffic.
Training
The training type you choose for your youth players is completely independent from the senior squad. Players in the youth team also have a cap for their qualities in a certain skill: at a certain moment the player won’t improve anymore, because he has learned everything there is to learn about that skill. Because you can’t always see the skill of a youth player, you will have to watch his performances to determine whether you should stop training him on a skill or not.

When you ask for the scout reports, they present you their player one by one, and provide comments on each player. For each presented player you have the choice either to accept him or to send him away hoping that one of the next scouts presents you a better player. Be careful, once you’ve rejected a player, there’s no possibility to take him back.
You’re not obliged to have 3 scouts. If you have less than 3 scouts your wage cost for your scouts will be lower, but the chance of finding real talent will also be reduced. The total cost for 3 scouts is similar to the cost of the old youth squad.
Using both systems simultaneously
As of 01/09/2008, it is only possible to use one system at a time. If you invest in the old system, you cannot open a youth team, and if you have a youth team, you cannot invest in the old system, or pull a player from it.
In the past it was possible to use both systems simultaneously, albeit if you chose to check the scout reports, you couldn’t do a youth pull in the old system that week even if you reject all the presented players. Only one youth pull per week was possible. Which system you choose could differ from week to week, and was determined by pulling a player in one of the systems. This also means that you’re weren't obliged to use one of the systems.
Every week you had the possibility either to let your scouts search for a talent for your youth team (new system), or to promote a player from your youth squad (old system) to your A team. Apart from that, you were able to promote a player from your youth team (new system) to your A team, at least if he has been there long enough.
