The Tikariotian national under-21 football team is the representative under-21 team of Tikariot in international association football. It is currently organised by the Tikariot Football Federation, the current governing body for football in Tikariot.
History
The under-21 team of Tikariot is a brand-new formation that has yet to play its first competitive match. Through the surge of interest in international football throught he successes of the senior team, calls for an under-21 team became louder and louder, so the Tikariot Football Federation installed a team to compete in youth tournaments.
Team culture
Uniform
The under-21 team wears the same kits as the Tikariot national football team.
The home kit has a black jersey with a purple framed white stripe through the middle and a white owl head on the right front shoulder, black shorts and black socks.
The away kit is all white with some purple swirls and a black owl head on the right front shoulder.
The alternate third kit is all purple with white stripes along the arms.
The manufacturer has been Ferideia since the inception of the national team.
Nickname
Named after the national animal of Tikariot, the team is called the Junior Owls, which also is part of their jersey.
Style of play
To aid the young players in their transition to the senior national team, the Junior Owls traditionally play a 4-3-3 formation with high fluidity. The wing backs push forward in attacking situations, while the wingers drop back in return when the team is being pushed in the defensive. While nominally playing with a classic two winger-one central forward formation, the forwards frequently switch sides in an effort to make their tactics harder to predict.
Home stadium
The Tikariot national under-21 football team plays in rotating stadia, but its main homebase is the Bay Park Arena in Ysgrann Bay, Acrassia, home of the Ysgrann Bay Eagles FC.
