Reserve Team


Hearts Reserves are the reserve team of Heart of Midlothian.

Hearts were members of the Scottish Premier Reserve League from its foundation in the 1998–99 season. The league started as an U21 League but reverted to an open age group league in season 2004–05.[2] The Reserve League was abandoned for season 2009–10 due to financial constraints and a lack of support from other clubs.[3] Hearts Reserves formerly played their home games at Forthbank Stadium (the home of Stirling Albion). The team mainly consisted of Under-19 players and those on the fringe of the first team squad. Some of the first team also played when recovering from injury. The Reserves' head coach in that was Gary Locke.

In July 2018, it was reported that reserve leagues would be reintroduced in lieu of the development leagues that had been in place since 2009. The top tier of the new SPFL Reserve League featured 18 clubs, whilst a second-tier reserve League comprised nine clubs. Other than a minimum age of 16, no age restrictions applied to the leagues.[4] At the end of its first season (201819) several clubs intimated that they would withdraw from the Reserve League to play a variety of challenge matches,[5] but Hearts were one of those who chose to remain.[6]


Under-20 Team & development squad


The Heart of Midlothian Under-20 Team competes in the SPFL Development League previously the Scottish Premier Under 20s League.

In 2017, the Hearts academy was one of eight across the country designated 'elite' status on the introduction of Project Brave, an SFA initiative to concentrate the development of the best young players at a smaller number of clubs with high quality facilities and coaching than was previously the case.[7][8]

The under-20s play their home matches at Ochilview Park, Stenhousemuir whilst training at Riccarton (Heriot-Watt University).
