2019 U14 Player and Parent Package

ABOUT THE U14 HIGH PERFORMANCE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

Football New Brunswick is the provincial governing body for football in the province. One of our mandates is to provide a high performance developmental pathway for athletes interested in playing football at an elite level.
 
This programs mission is to provide selected players that meet the age requirements from New Brunswick with the fundamental skills to help them achieve their full potential. Players are going to be introduced to high performance schedules, practices and competition through a developmental process. Every athlete will leave the program with a much greater knowledge and understanding of high performance football and what to expect as they go through the U16 and U18 provincial team programs.
 
The U14 Football Program is open to players born in 2006 and 2007 and is a beginner level entry point to high performance sport. As an entry to high performance, there will be no cuts and will make every effort to give every player as equal playing time and opportunity as possible (Head Coach will still determine and take into account team and game variables).
