The New Zealand Football Talent Development Programme (TDP) provides an aligned, co-ordinated approach to the development of high potential youth footballers, aged 13-17 years – both boys and girls.
Its main aim is to provide a challenging, structured programme for players, in an enjoyable environment that maximises player development.
The programme has three objectives:
Produce better players in NZ by increasing the number and quality of training sessions for players 13-17 years old
Provide clear training guidelines based on NZ environment for youth footballers wanting to be the best they can be
Create a clear aspirational pathway for youth footballers in NZ
The programme has a clear player development focus rather than outcomes and results focus.
Interested players must be registered for trials via Friendly Manager
