The Association Development Program (ADP) provides boys and girls aged 5–12 the opportunity to develop their technical skills in a program designed to help kids reach their full potential.
The ADP is designed to supplement club players’ local training and provide the technical assistance needed to build a set of skills that will enhance players’ ability to perform better on match days, during training, and at trials for future representative squads.
