How To Recommend PlayersClub Coaching Directors and Team coaches can recommend players from their clubs to be in the NorCal Premier Player Development Program. For information on the type of player the PDP program is looking for click here.
Add Players to Your Teams
Before players can be recommended, NorCal Premier Member teams must have their players listed on their NorCal Premier Team page. You must have the following information available to add players: Player Name and Birth date. Players cannot be recommended for PDP unless they are listed on your team. You can ask your team manager or admin to add players to your team.
How NorCal Players are listed on the NorCal Premier Site
Teams must have their team’s playing year (example: 2008-2009) established for players to be listed on their team. Each year a team officer should update their team’s playing year and add players from the previous year back onto the team. This allows teams to track a yearly history of a team’s roster. This year the PDP program is looking for players on 2008-2009 teams.
Privacy: NorCal Premier is aware of privacy concerns of children. The default behavior is that player names are not published to the public. Player’s names are only seen by your club’s NorCal premier contacts.
