The Professional Footballers’ Association’s ’South Asian Pathways in the Professional Game‘ three-year update strategy report: showcasing the work undertaken and detailing the impact achieved. We have continued to see momentum build for South Asian players across the game, and the success of our scheme is driving a positive, hopeful narrative – both on and off the pitch. This pioneering work is playing a leading role in developing a sustainable future for South Asian players in elite football. Last month we released our latest figures on the number of South Asian professional players in the game, and – positively – numbers are at a all-time high. Together, we have created strong foundations and are ready to keep this momentum going. While players remain our primary focus, the strong links we have created with clubs, stakeholders and practitioners have been crucial in raising awareness of this work and moving the whole industry towards a common goal.

📘 "Raising the Bar" Series: Chapter 2 Continuation - Recommendation 2 Unveiled 🚀 Continuing our exploration into Chapter 2 of the "Raising the Bar" review chaired by Karen Carney MBE OLY , let's shine a spotlight on Recommendation 2: Recommendation 2: The Football Association Needs to Fix the Talent Pathways. How? 2.1 Choosing a Strategic Partner: One willing to invest in building a sustainable pipeline of domestic talent. 🌱💡 Problems in the Current Pathway: 1. Disparity of Investment: Men's academies receive £88m per annum compared to women's academies with £3.25m per annum. 2. Gap in Competitive Opportunities: Particularly for girls aged 11-14. 3. Lack of Investment in Skilled Individuals: Working with the best talent. 4. Need for Homegrown Talent in WC Clubs: Hindered by a lack of investment. 5. Lack of Proper Compensation: Transfer fees as low as £500. 💰🤷♀️ How? 2.2 Clubs Should Access an Increased Pool of International Talent. Why? To upskill domestic players and facilitate squad formation. Challenges in Women's Championship (WC): - WSL teams need 8 homegrown players, while WC teams need 15. - WC clubs face challenges affording international players due to high GBE requirements. - International players are expensive, contributing to the WC talent shortage. NewCo's Role: - Work on decreasing the minimum GBE requirement from 24 points to ease access to international players. - Facilitate a decrease in prices for international players, allowing WC clubs to build competitive squads. 🌐⚽ #RaisingTheBarSeries #WomensFootball #TalentPathways #GlobalStandards 🚀💪
