Hibs have announced a partnership with Stenhousemuir which will see them send more players on loan to the League Two outfit.
The Easter Road side already have three players at Ochilview, with left back Callum Yeats, midfielder Jayden Fairly and goalkeeper Paddy Martin all playing for the club.
It's the latest partnership Hibs have announced since Ron Gordon took over as chairman, with American outfit Charleston Battery also involved.
And Hibs sporting director Graeme Mathie insists it will be a huge benefit for both Jack Ross' men and the lower league side.
He said: "We can now show all our young players that there is a defined pathway here for them at Hibernian, involving a club in the football league who want to work with us to help them develop from a young age.
"The experiences for all these players are different, but the one thing which is consistent is they are all benefiting from a very good environment at the club.
"(Stenhousemuir manager) Davie Irons and (assistant) Kevin McGoldrick have been excellent with the players, and they have a strong core of experienced players who are also setting a very good example and have helped the players settle into their group.
"The partnership means we will have regular meetings between staff from both clubs, not only to discuss the development of the players who are here now, but to start to plan what player(s) may be next to benefit from the experience."
Scottish league clubs can loan a maximum of four players to the same club.
Stenhousemuir chief executive Jamie Swinney said: "The relationship will see the sides play in-house development games, hold regular player progression meetings and share coaching, sports science, sports psychology and video analysis resources."
