New Football Opportunity: Talent ID Programme
We’re excited to be starting a free, brand new, four-week talent identification programme for boys and girls, not currently in our pathway, aged 6 to 16, called the Talent ID programme.
The Talent ID free four-week programme will help keen footballers on their technical development, building on skills like ball mastery, 1v1 skills as well as small group work aimed to improve decision making both in and out of possession. This programme is open to boys and girls aged 6-16.
Matches will also be a key feature of the programme with an emphasis on small sided games.
Each session within the programme will be overseen by UEFA qualified Palace for Life coaches who will be training and observing players across the four-week course, looking for talented players to recruit into centres within our Player Development Pathway.
The programme will be held at Harris Purley School, on their 3G. To sign up, head here.
We are committed to creating more opportunities for boys and girls to play football, and identifying talented young players, providing them with access to a football development pathway. This brand-new programme offers a fantastic opportunity for aspiring footballers to showcase their talents, and enhance their chances of joining our growing pathway at Palace for Life Foundation.
