Like the Austrian file you are able to control the u23 squads, for example FC Bayern München II. They can be promoted up to the 3.Liga and having them is very important for youth development.
Also included are various media sources such as Sky Deutschland, Kicker, Bild and ESPN.

Open the file in the editor and click on "Oberliga". there you click on the NOFV Süd and NOFV Nord - Set the minimum team number to 10 in both leagues and save the file. then it should work properly!
So has never played a U17 player in the German competitions before despite beeing a real talent? Damn. Thanks for your answer Louis O. Then if I start again I should focus only on 17 years old as youngest players in my squad.
I have chosen Strausberg to manage. I worked a lot in finding and signing talented players in order to have a good season. But when the season started...SHOCK! Under 17 players were not allowed to play despite having youth contracts or non contract terms with me. So despite signing 23 players in pre-season I remained only with 6 eligible players when the season started. So I had to erase the game and won't play it anymore. I played in England's lower leagues as well and there wasn't a problem in the 10th or 11th tier (voasy's work) to play with 15 year old players. And in Germany's real season is it forbidden? It's strange in a country that has such a good youth level maybe the best in the world near Spain. So if you have a mega-talented 16 year old he is not allowed to play???!!! Even in the Oberliga?? So this is the bug I mean. Maybe you can change it next year so we can play the Oberliga in the FM 15. I appreciate your work. Maybe you can make it better in order to become Germany/maniacs while playing.
Cheers!
The Bremer Liga (5th tier) does not allow players under the age of 17 to play, despite it hosting my (as Werder Bremen) u21 or (Werder III) squad.
Is this correct? my U17 Players can play in the Regionnaliga with this mod, but not the Kreisliga (Bremer Liga)
