The First Team are currently looking for a new coach and the combination team is managed by Keith Lythgoe.

After gaining promotion in 2021 a large majority of the first team players left the club which was very disappointing and the only senior newcomers were ex player Greg Radcliffe back from Colby and young Gymns prospect Ross Crawford. This leaves a huge burden on remaining Youthie stalwarts such as Martyn Murphy, Dan Callow, Graham Kennish, Marc McLurg, Glen McGovern, Dylan Parish and Damian Wood along with a number of promising youngsters.

Teams

Alongside the two senior teams, the club has a junior set-up with a range of teams for all young ages, including an under-6s, under 8's, under-10s, under-12s and Under 16s. The club also contests in the Cowell Cup tournament (16–21).

The team use the special built changing rooms for the club in the Scoill Ree Gorree school. The seniors train on a Monday in the Scoill Ree Gorree sports hall and on a Thursday at the RGS Astro. The juniors train on a Saturday morning at the pitch 9.30-11/11;30 dependent on age.
