(C) Let the initial average age of the $11$ players be $A$. The total age is $11A$.When two players aged $18$ and $20$ are replaced by two new players with ages $x$ and $y$, the new total age becomes $11A - 18 - 20 + x + y$.The new average age is $A + \frac{2}{12} = A + \frac{1}{6}$.Thus, $\frac{11A - 38 + x + y}{11} = A + \frac{1}{6}$.$11A - 38 + x + y = 11A + \frac{11}{6}$.$x + y = 38 + \frac{11}{6} = 38 + 1 	ext{ year } 10 	ext{ months} = 39 	ext{ years } 10 	ext{ months}$.The average age of the two new players is $\frac{x + y}{2} = \frac{39 	ext{ years } 10 	ext{ months}}{2} = 19 	ext{ years } 11 	ext{ months}$.
