And the city club are also hoping to enter an Under 14 team into the top-level competition as well. To do that they need to attract some more players.
Roberts said: “The new Under 14 elite side will be made up from hopefully the best current crop of Under 13 players (Year 8s) in and around Peterborough.
“Players can still play for their current teams in the local Sunday league as Junior Premier League games are on a Saturday and dual signing is permitted as it is a different league set-up.

“And we hope to have this throughout the entire junior/youth sections of the club in the future.”
