Elite Player Performance Plan Explained

The Elite Player Performance Plan (EPPP) is a long-term strategy with the aim of developing more and better homegrown players. In this video we highlight some of the key components of The Elite Player Performance Plan taking into account EPPP investment which has significantly increased the number of full time coaches working in Academies, from 250 in 2012/13 to 800 in 2019/20. investment has significantly increased the number of full time coaches working in Academies, from 250 in 2012/13 to 800 in 2019/20.

Objective of The Elite Player Performance Plan

*Increase the number and quality of home-grown players gaining professional contracts in the clubs and playing first-team football at the highest level
*Create more time for players to play and be coached
*Improve coaching provision
*Implement a system of effective measurement and quality assurance
*Positively influence strategic investment into the Academy System, demonstrating value for money
*Seek to implement significant gains in every aspect of player development

The EPPP is the result of consultation between the Premier League and its clubs, representatives of the Football League, the Football Association and other key football stakeholders. The plan aims to improve youth development by focusing on the following:

*Allowing clubs to have more coaching time with their young players
*Helping clubs foster links with local schools in order to help young players get the best out of their football education as well as the academic side
*Allowing clubs that have earned a top category grading to recruit young talent from further afield than is permitted under the current rules
*Working with the Football League to review the current system used for determining compensation.

The EPPP has been greeted with scepticism from parts of the English Football League

As an example Brentford will reopen their academy after Premier League clubs voted through a rule that dictates every member must operate one by the start of the 2024-25 season. The new youth development regulations were agreed. The stipulation is that top-flight clubs are required to operate a category three academy by the start of the 2024-25 campaign.

Brentford controversially closed their category two academy in 2016 on the grounds that running costs of about £2m a year meant it equated to bad business. Their switch to a B-team model, which develops players aged 17-21 and has its own games programme, has been highly successful. Their previous structure was also exploited by elite clubs who signed their best youngsters on the cheap.

More than 20 players from Brentford’s B team have graduated to the first team, including Marcus Forss and Mads Roerslev. Huddersfield and Wycombe have since introduced productive B teams.
