Waltham Forest FC have begun building for the future by announcing they will start up two new youth teams.
The club will be entering Under-15 and Under-16 sides into the Eastern Junior Alliance League for the 2014/15 campaign.
It will be the first time since the 2007/08 season Waltham Forest have entered sides into the competition.
The club have been able to enter two youth sides into the Eastern Junior Alliance League thanks to their partnership with Academy FC.
Players from Academy FC have previously joined the likes of Arsenal, Charlton Athletic and Leyton Orient.
