Olympiacos F.C. Youth Academy is the football academy system of Greek professional football club Olympiacos consisting of six official youth teams (Under-10, Under-13, Under-14, Under-15, Under-17 and Under-20), based on the young athletes' age.[1] Other age-based youth teams (e.g. Under-8) are also part of the academy, however they do not appear as official youth teams. Olympiacos' U15, U17 and U20 teams all play in Greek Superleague's youth competitions (Superleague U15, U17 and U20 respectively), while the U20 team is a regular participant in the UEFA Youth League. The latter also featured in the 2012-13 Next Gen Series, reaching the quarter-finals of the competition.
