4. What is a Player Development Centre? A Player Development Centre (PDC) is a local County FA run centre for U9 – U17 age groups. Players gain access to the PDC through a trial process organised and delivered by the County FA. The PDC is the next step of The FA girls’ talent pathway What can I expect to receive at a Player Development Centre? Every player will continue to play for their local grassroots club, and receive one extra night of training and support from appropriately qualified coaches. You will also be invited to play in friendly fixtures, which will allow you to gain experience playing against other PDC’s. Where will the Player Development Centres be located? The Kent centre is based at the Gallagher Stadium home of Maidstone UTD. The PDCs will run for a minimum of 15 weeks and a maximum of 20 weeks between the months of September to May in any season. How long can I stay at a Player Development Centre? As long as you want! The experienced coaches at the PDC will support you in your transition from PDC to Centre of Excellence should it be appropriate for you. If not, they will continue to support your development at the PDC subject to trials on an annual basis. Contact: Nat Curtis nat.curtis@kentfa.com KENT PLAYER DEVELOPMENT CENTRE
