Academy Grads, Who's Next?

Last Saturday three former academy players started for The Rams, Mark O'Brien, Jeff Hendrick and Will Hughes.

The latter two are first team regulars whilst O'Brien has many first team appearances behind him.

Mason Bennett made his debut at sixteen and both Josh Lelan and Kwame Thomas have sat on the subs bench.

Who's going to be the next player to make the move up from the youth team? Max Lowe and Adam Wixted have been getting rave reviews and big things are expected of Charles Vernam who made the switch from Scunthorpe.

It is reassuring to know that Darren Wassall, Craig Short and Co are safe hands where the academy is concerned. Wassall's son Ayrton, is also a scholar at Moor Farm.

The future does appear to be bright where youth is concerned.
