2023 FA Para Football England Talent Days

Argyle Community Trust are delighted to confirm the schedule for the 2023 FA Para Football England Talent Days.

England Talent Days are utilised as a player’s first engagement with the Para Football Pathway and as the first selective environment in the player pathway.

The Plymouth regional day will be held on  Saturday, 10 June at Manadon Sports Hub from 10.30am-1.30pm.

The programme will identify and signpost players to the ‘right’ environment at that point in time and seeks to feed the subsequent Regional and National levels of the pathway. The Para Football player pathway runs ALONG SIDE any football that players already participate in, so does not compromise or replace any current involvement in the game.The impairment groups included in England Talent Day activities are:

  • Players who are deaf
  • Players who have cerebral palsy (and are ambulant)
  • Players who are partially sighted

Age range: 7 to 16 years (with the exception of mainstream/non impaired goalkeepers which has a more flexible top age range.)Please Note: Players who are already engaged in the FA Para Football Pathway (i.e. those currently at a Talent Hub or in the Regional or National Talent Programme) DO NOT need to attend an England Talent Day!

The FA Para Football England Talent Days player registration form is available for bookings now https://forms.office.com/e/V3Nqt5DZsf.
