2023-2024 ADP Fall-Winter

The Advanced Development Program is Richmond FC’s competitive stream for players born 2016-2006. The program is for experienced soccer players with intermediate to advanced skill. It is not for beginners or players newer to soccer – please see the RFC’s Open Development Program. Placement in the Advanced Development Program is by evaluation & selection only. Players not currently (2022-2023 Fall/Winter) in the Advanced Development Program can email admin@richmondfc.ca for evaluation information. Evaluations will take place in late August and information will go out to those players registered in Open Development.

Players in the Advanced Development Program will be placed on teams (within their birth year) and train 2-3 times per week with weekend games. U8-10 teams train 2 times per week with Saturday intra-squad and exhibition games. U11-U12 teams train 2 times per week. U13-U15 Div 2 and U16-U18 Div 1 & 2 train 2 times per week.
