England DNA Youth Development Phase Roadshow - Graeme Carrick

Following the huge success of the England DNA Foundation Phase CPD event in February, we are delighted to announce that we'll be hosting an England DNA Youth Development Phase CPD event, delivered by Graeme Carrick, FA Regional Coach Mentor.

The event is an update and introduction to the England DNA in the Youth Development Phase. The 3 hour workshop will highlight the ethos, principles and considerations for coaches working with 12-16 year olds across the game.

On the evening, you’ll be guided through some theoretical background which will set the scene for the practical session, held on the main pitch at Chelmsford City's Melbourne stadium. This event will provide a fantastic opportunity for coaches to gain a first-hand insight into the Youth Development Phase. Importantly, this links to and builds on from our Foundation Phase event - ideal for those looking to develop knowledge for the transition of players from the Foundation Phase to Development Phase.
