The Junior Development Leagues (JDL) will be introduced in 2025, replacing the Skill Acquisition Program (SAP) and Girls Skill Acquisition Program (GSAP) that have previously existed. The Junior Development Leagues will be known as ‘Mixed JDL' and ‘Girls JDL'.
The implementation of the JDL aims to create a line in the sand whereby Football NSW's approach to the program evolves towards a stronger focus on Club capability building, the sharing of best practice program elements and the accountability of Clubs and Football NSW to each other.
The changes aim to improve the players' experience and their development within our JDL environments.
