All of Poynton, O'Keeffe and Ubaezuono have come through the Lilywhites' academy and gone on to make first-team appearances.

While both Poynton and O'Keeffe have been involved in Stephen Kenny's senior squad this season, Ubaezuono has played regularly for First Division Galway United on-loan from Dundalk.
