So, do most clubs send teams of teenagers then? (apart from the masters grade)

Yeah, apart from the hong Kong teams we're probably the most experienced squad in the tournament. West Ham had a guy who made a couple first team appearances and is an England U19 regular (Nathan Holland), but we lost to Newcastle Jets who was an entirely youth side which is pretty embarassing

Apart from Rufer (and Rogerson?) the rest are teenagers. I'm sure we have sent older teams before - Doyle, Watson, Gulley etc.

Experience as in first-team games, we definitely have the most professional appearances overall
