The Foundation recently redeveloped our new girls’ and women’s football strategy, comprising of three strands – play our game, learn our game and change our game.
The Girls’ Football & Education Pathway is designed to help young females reach their full potential through football. The Foundation delivers a three-tiered pathway for ages U8 to U16, through the Development Centre (DC), Advanced Development Centre (ADC) and the Academy Development Programme (ADP).
Alongside our own programmes, we are also delivering an Emerging Talent Centre on behalf of the FA for the 2022/23 season.
All our football development programmes are designed to complement existing grassroots football commitments.
