The Development Player Programme (DPP) provides players the opportunity to be coached, whilst still being able to play for their grassroots team. Players will receive one hour of technical coaching per week as well as the opportunity to progress into the club’s shadow squads. The development centre runs across three blocks, covering a variety of topics over the course of 35 weeks. The primary focus of the PDC at Peterborough United Foundation is to play a key role in identifying gifted and talented players, as well as supplementing their grassroots football. We run Development Centres from U6’s – U16’s and we also have a specific Goalkeeper Development Centre; Our Development Centres are currently held at the first team training ground.
