I will be announcing the Project Squads 2011, 2012, 2013 & 2014 after August National Training Weekend.
These projects will start in September 2009 and will consist of 2/3 goalkeepers and 12/13 players.

In the next 3 months the timetable for National Training Weekend can change with groups having different times and training at the same time with other groups to ensure we can swap players around to ensure we can make a better assessment.

I will pass a document to all the parents regarding the projects and I will need a confirmation from them about their commitment as I am intending to run these projects the same way we have done with 2010 which has been very successful.

I would like to emphases that I will announce a maximum of 15 players (including goalkeepers) and it is possible that some players will not be named in the squads, although they can still train in their group age at National Training Weekends.

This way I will ensure players develop properly to achieve the objectives for England to be very competitive at International level.

Finally I may change players from one project to other and it is also possible that I may replace players already named in the project with a player that has not been originally named in the squad.

If this is the case then it will be discussed with the player and their parents.
