The sides will meet in Clonmel Celtic FC on Monday (3.00pm) and again on Wednesday (12.00pm) at Cahir Park AFC.

"It's our final two fixtures of the year so it's another opportunity for them to play a really high level opponent," said O'Brien.

"These games are always a great chance for our players to learn what is required to play against that a calibre of opponent which the Czech Republic normally prove to be.

"We've brought in a couple of new players so it's an opportunity for those players to learn about this level of the game while the players that were in before will hopefully build on what we've worked on with them throughout the season."

After two impressive performances against Poland in November, O'Brien's U15s travelled to a tournament in Turkey in February and produced some excellent displays against Netherlands, Turkey and Austria.

"We had an assessment day in March with 32 players but this will be the first time to work with the players since the tournament in February. We'll be focusing on the four functions of the game - attacking, defending and the transitions - both from a visual and practical point of view which will add to the players' knowledge," he added.
