EDC FOOTBALL CLUB

EDC Football Club offers a supportive, phased development programme designed to guide players on their journey from youth football through to young adulthood. Our aim is to provide exceptional coaching, structured progression, and a positive environment where every player can thrive.

​

Our youngest superstars, take part in the EDC Juniors programme, which delivers a twice-weekly training schedule across 48 weeks of the year. This stage focuses on developing core skills, confidence, and a lifelong enjoyment of the game.

​

Foundation Phase (Under 9-11s)

At Under 9 level, players enter our Foundation Phase and are placed into one of two tailored pathways:

​

EDC Football Club
A high-performance programme designed for players demonstrating strong ability and a consistently excellent attitude towards training and matches. This pathway focuses on accelerating development in a more performance-driven environment.

​

EDC Youth
A grassroots-focused pathway providing an outstanding foundation for players to continue developing at their own pace, with an emphasis on enjoyment, learning, and long-term growth in the game.

 

Youth Development Phase (U12–U16)

As players progress beyond the Foundation Phase, they enter our Youth Development Phase, where the focus shifts towards refining individual ability, game understanding, and preparing players for the demands of competitive football.

​

At this stage, players continue to develop within a structured and challenging environment that promotes both technical excellence and strong personal development.
