The pathway
A pathway with purpose.
NOVANTA’s pathway is designed around readiness rather than simply age. Players develop at different rates. Progression should reflect technical ability, tactical understanding, physical development, attitude, confidence and readiness for the next challenge.
01 / Readiness over age
Four stages.
One direction.
A clear framework for development, challenge and appropriate next steps.
- 01
DEVELOPMENT
Build the foundations.
- 02
N90
Raise the level of challenge.
- 03
HIGHER-PERFORMANCE COMPETITIVE FOOTBALL
Test readiness in meaningful competition.
- 04
WIDER FEMALE FOOTBALL OPPORTUNITIES
Find the right next environment.
02 / Progression beyond NOVANTA
The right next challenge.
NOVANTA should celebrate players moving into appropriate professional-club academy, ETC or other higher-performance opportunities.
Progression is individual. The purpose of the pathway is to help players and families understand the next challenge, with no promise of a particular outcome.
