| "The revival
of Youth Football for those between 16 and 18 years of age has been one
of the most important features in The Football Association's work since
the War. The 1947-48 season has seen two innovations. The first was the
International Youth Tournament played in England. There was also the
Youth International Championship between England, Scotland, Wales and
Ireland. The success of these competitions is unquestioned, and they are
likely to become a permanent feature in each year's fixtures. The
promise shown by many of the players and their general enthusiasm augurs
well for the future of the game." -
