A GROUP of young footballers have embarked on a four-day tour of south Wales.

The Taunton District Schools FA (TDSFA) group of Under-15s and Under-16s players had a fixture against a Bristol Rovers Academy side yesterday, before heading towards Swansea for the remainder of the trip.

The side went into the tour on form, having secured two local wins against FC Bridgwater U16  & Millfield U16.

After facing Bristol Rovers U16 at Redland High School, the group watched Bristol Rovers' first team take on Bradford City at the Memorial Stadium.

Day two sees the team take on Pontardawe Town Academy U15/16 Tir Canol Playing Fields, Morriston (ko 10.30am), and the third day brings a 3pm fixture against Swansea Inter-District Schools FA, before returning on Tuesday.
