Player Development Centres help to bridge the gap between grassroots football and the Regional Talent Club programme. These Centres offer young talented female players with potentially the best coaching environment to assist their personal development in football.

Chester & Crewe are currently hosting trials for this season.

Players who have been successful at these trials will be invited to the Centres to take part in a programme where they will be challenged in line with The FA's 4 Corner Model (technically, physically, psychologically and socially).

Players selected for the talent programme can continue to play for their local grassroots club, and will receive extra coaching once a week; with FA qualified coaches. The PDC will consist of a 20 week coaching programme and a minimum of two fixture festival dates. The PDC will run coaching sessions for successful players in the following age groups for the season 2017-18 – U10’s, U12's, U14's & U16's.
