City learn 24/25 PDL Cup Groups

Hull City Academy has identified their Professional Development League Cup group opponents for the 2024/25 season.

The Under-18s will meet Bradford City, Doncaster Rovers, and Barnsley in Group C of the prestigious junior tournament.

The Professional Development League Cup, which was established for the 2021/22 season, divides 28 clubs into seven groups of four, with the top team going to the knockout stages, as well as the best second-placed team.

Last season, City advanced to the knockout stages for the first time after finishing as the best second-placed team, alongside Harrogate Town, Mansfield Town and Sheffield United.

The Tigers were eliminated in the quarter-finals after losing to Group F winners Watford, whereas Millwall became the current tournament holders after defeating Swansea City 3-1 in the final.

The Under-16s face the same three teams in their U16 Professional Development League Cup group C, with both sets of matches taking place on the stated dates.

Meanwhile, the Under-17s will meet Grimsby Town, Doncaster Rovers, and Lincoln City in Group D of the U17 Professional Development League Cup, with fixtures still to be arranged.
