The Under 13s will also play but their opponents have yet to be confirmed.

The under 16s are the only National League team not in action at Mallusk and they will travel to Derry to take on Tristar.

The club’s two youngest teams will also start their league campaigns when the South Belfast Youth League also gets underway. The under 10s will get their first ever taste of 11 a side competitive action when they take on Springfield Star whilst the Under 11’s will compete against Aquinas, in what will be their second competitive season in the SBYL.

The club would also like to wish their former players and indeed the whole team of the newly amalgamated Ballymena United Under 17s as they too start their league campaign in the Lisburn Youth League against Shankill Youth.
