Fulham FC Foundation’s Girls Development Centre is part of our Female Football Pathway.
This is a trial for the Girls Development Centre U12/13 group at Fulham Cross Girls School for the 2025/26 season. The trial will take place on the 18th of November, offering young footballers the opportunity to showcase their abilities in an attempt to join our Fulham Cross Girls Development Centre for the 25/26 season.
The Development Centre is an invite only programme for players U8-U16 that strives to support the footballing development of ambitious and accomplished grassroots players, while also fostering their overall holistic development. Sessions run by experienced coaches provides a pioneering and stimulating environment allowing individuals to recognise and reach their maximum potential. We look to support individuals across the FA's 4 corner model – focusing on physical, technical, tactical, psychological, and social aspects—to ensure holistic growth both on and off the pitch.
Our Girls Development Centre is designed to complement club training by offering a supportive and inspiring environment where players can take ownership of their learning and development in an aim to reach their full potential. We help guide our individual players towards the opportunities best suited to them. We provide opportunities to progress to our Football & Education College Programme (16-18 years) and Fulham FC Women/ U18s where appropriate. Other sessions available at The Foundation include: Girls Kicks/Kicks Development Centre (10-18 years), Girls Soccer School (5-14 years) and our Player Development Centre which offers an opportunity for those who wish to play in a mixed environment (U7-U16s).
