For the 20 National League clubs that will emerge, having academy sides should be part of the licencing for the League of Ireland eligibility.
If a Second Division is going to be formed eventually, currently only Mayo, CK, Kildare and possibly Shamrock Rovers B still jump out as likely contenders.
The academy leagues have had a good national spread. It'll be interesting to see the influence academy plans has on the criteria for 20 clubs joining the National League. It should be central.
