The Development Squads represent the pinnacle of our new Youth Development Framework which we have established to provide more structured player development pathways for our youngsters. The framework covers all ages from U5 right through to U17 and mirrors the National Curriculum created by Football Federation Australia designed to produce players for our national teams that have been coached to play FFA way.
Participation in the squads is a privilege for those that are successful as they will benefit from our increased investment in coaches development and our collective focus on implementation of the FFA National Curriculum.
Participation in the Development Squads will require certain commitments from both players and their parents/guardians as set out in the Code of Conduct.
