The Reserves

The Tottenham Hotspur Reserves consist of mainly young players under the age of 21 who are no longer eligible for the academy but are still trying to make the step up to the senior team. The reserve team is also often used to give senior squad players and senior players returning from injury the chance to play and keep or build up match fitness.

The team are currently managed by former player Clive Allen and play their matches at Leyton Orient's home ground Matchroom Stadium from the 2007-08 season onwards. They originally played at Broadhall Way, the home ground of Stevenage Borough. They have won one Premier Reserve League South title since the league's formation in 1999.

The Academy

The Tottenham Hotspur Academy coaches young footballers from the ages of 8 to 18 involving approximately 150 young players, looked after by 30 full time and part time staff. The academy features a network of 35 scouts who are tasked with finding the best local, national and international talent.

Notable players to come through the Tottenham Hotspur Academy include Ledley King, Glenn Hoddle, Peter Crouch, Stephen Carr, Nick Barmby, Ian Walker and Sol Campbell all of whom have gone on to represent their country at international level.

The current Academy manager is Alex Inglethorpe who joined the club in 2006 after a two year spell as manager of Exeter City.

2005/06 season

Clive Allen became the manager of the reserve team at the beginning of the season and led them to their first FA Premier Reserve League South title staying in 1st position from mid-December until the end of the season. They lost just three times during the league season. In the Barclays Premiership Reserve League Play-Off which is contested by the winners of the Southern and Northern Reserve League title winners Tottenham Reserves lost 2-0 to Manchester United Reserves at Old Trafford.

2006/07 season

The 2006/07 was less successful for the reserve team with them finishing mid-table in fifth place behind league winners Reading, Watford, Chelsea and Leicester City. The academy team have made a vast improvement over the previous season and finished the league in third position in their Under 18 Group behind Reading and Leicester City.

The end of the season coincided with the end of a Tottenham career for Charlie Lee and Rob Burch with both being released to further their careers elsewhere. [ [http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/articles/playerupdate.html tottenhamhotspur.com] - Player Update]
