The PCFC Junior Development Programme gives our junior players a structured development opportunity, helps make PCFC family life easier, and makes your child’s football experience even better.
Here’s what we’re offering
After hearing from you, we know that time can be tight, and from our side, finding volunteers to coach teams can be tough. So, we’re stepping in to provide club-coached junior development teams for players in the 10th, 11th & 12th Grade age groups.
No more worrying about finding a parent coach from within the team, we’ve got it covered.
These are not graded teams, but teams made up of players who are committed to developing their football.
