The FA's Football for Disabled People Strategy has firmly placed the
FA as the world leading governing body in the development of disability
football. The success of the strategy has seen an explosion of opportunity
through schools programmes, Ability County and Charter Standard
Clubs, regional football festivals and leagues, through to Coaching
Centres and the six England disability football squads
Although
the strategy includes participation for all, it enables elite performers
to be guided through a "Player Pathway" to the national
teams.
There
are six international disability squads, one for each specific impairment.
These squads represent England in friendly internationals as well
as in European and World Championships. |
