Youngsters JAMIE SMITH and Ryan Carolan have been handed full contracts with Crystal Palace.
Fellow second-year scholars Aaron Dalhouse and Billy Bingham have been offered six-month deals on a non-contractual basis, but Joe Sweeney has been let go.
Under 18 coach Gary Issott said: "JAMIE SMITH is a diminutive attacking central midfielder in the mould of Eyal Berkovic. He is very clever and improved after a frustrating first year. He started this season well and, up until Christmas, his form was electric.
"Ryan is an Irish youth international who had a fantastic first year but struggled this term with injuries, which resulted in him missing big parts of the season.
"He is a left-footed player who can play at centre back or in central midfield. At 6 foot 1 inch he is also a tall presence and has good skill on the ball."
