PLAYER DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES (PDI)
The United States Soccer Federation (USSF) has implemented these PDI's to focus on player development.
The focus of the PDI are as follows:
•Development over winning
•Create environment for player success
•Program uniform across US
•Reduce advantage of strongest/fastest
•Increase technical skills
•Keep ball on ground
Although this PowerPoint presentation, our coaches in the affected divisions may find it useful when they conduct training drills.
