Some of Ipswich's greatest ever players have come through the club's youth system since the 1960s, including Roger Osborne, Mick Mills, Kevin Beattie, Russell Osman, George Burley, John Wark, Terry Butcher and Jason Dozzell.[3] The academy was also very successful during the 1990s, producing a number of first-team players including Richard Wright, Titus Bramble, James Scowcroft and Kieron Dyer.[4] More recently, players such as Connor Wickham, who became the youngest Ipswich player to ever play for the first-team, making his debut at 16 years and 11 days old and Andre Dozzell, son of Jason Dozzell, who like his father went on to score in his debut for the club at the age of 16, have both graduated from the academy.[5][6]
