Development of the player within the Talented Pathway is a task that is shared jointly between OPDL License Holders and Ontario Soccer. A sense of mutual obligation should therefore exist between OPDL License Holders and Ontario Soccer.
The Performance Management process is an examination of the ability of both OPDL License Holders and Ontario Soccer to act together in the protection of the long-term welfare of the Talented Pathway player. The assessment that occurs through the Performance Management process is targeted to enhance the strong feelings of duty shared by both the OPDL License Holders and Ontario Soccer towards the players of the Talented Pathway. Completion of the following form ensures all standards are met and will be reviewed by the OPDL.
In 2018, all information shared with Ontario Soccer will also be presented to Canada Soccer for the purpose of assessment for the National Youth Club License.
