the programme

At DL Technical Development, our programme is built around measurable, accountable, and professional player growth. Every session is designed to challenge, educate, and inspire — combining technical detail with performance standards that mirror elite academy environments.

Whether working individually or within a structured plan, players are developed through a process that’s tailored, consistent, and results-driven

1-to-1 Coaching

Personalised sessions focused on refining technique, improving decision-making, and building confidence.

Each session is delivered with attention to detail, mirroring the standards of professional academies.

Our data-driven approach provides players and parents with clear, visual progress — reinforcing accountability and structure throughout the development process.

Through consistent 1-to-1 work, players not only improve technically and physically but also gain the mindset and habits needed to perform at their highest level.

Individual Development Plans (IDP)

Every player receives a tailored plan built around their strengths, areas for improvement, and goals. The IDP allows measurable progress tracking — ensuring accountability and structure throughout their development journey.

  • Each IDP is tailored around a player’s strengths, areas for improvement, and goals.
    We look at technical ability, tactical understanding, physical performance, and mindset to build a plan that truly fits the individual.

  • We set specific, measurable targets for short- and long-term development.
    From improving first touch to mastering game awareness, each goal is tracked so players and coaches can see tangible growth over time.

  • Regular reviews ensure players stay on track.
    We use video analysis, data tracking, and 1-on-1 feedback sessions to discuss progress, celebrate wins, and set new challenges.

  • Every player develops differently — that’s why we coach the person, not just the player.
    The IDP gives each athlete a clear roadmap to reach their goals, supported every step of the way by individualized coaching and feedback.

Player Analysis & Testing

Performance without measurement is just guesswork.
Through technical testing, data review, and consistent monitoring, we identify where each player stands and what it will take to progress to the next level.
Our analysis process brings clarity and purpose to training, ensuring no area of development is left behind.

Strength & Conditioning

Modern football demands more than technical skill, it requires athletic performance.
Our football-specific S&C program builds speed, balance, coordination, and injury prevention into every player’s routine.
This section focuses on laying the physical foundations to support technical excellence and long-term player health.
