The Macedonian youth league system starts with the oldest category, which is the U19s. We did a review of the 4 categories that follow including the second and third level for each of them. Also, we present you the top 3 of the goalscoring list for each league.
Overall, the most successful club is Shkendija who managed to win the league titles in three of the four categories (U19, U18 and U17) with Vardar claiming the U16 level. Shkendija also triumphed in three cup finals (U19, U18 and U16) with Akademija Pandev winning the U17 cup final. Since the senior team of Shkendija won the double, this club has definitely marked this season!
