The NWSF DNA is a framework that brings to life the mission of the association & representative clubs, which is “connecting our community through football, to achieve football 365“.
This DNA underpins all aspects of our pathways, from grassroots, talent, performance and social football, alongside our coach education.
The football goal of the DNA is…
High quality people and players who have the DNA qualities that enable them to play at their highest level in football and in life
We believe that high-quality people develop as a result of their environment and their experiences playing the game.
People
The people and their unique qualities are at the heart of the NWSF DNA
Game
These attributes enable all of us to enjoy and play the game
NWSF is a thriving football community which collectively works together to enhance the experiences of our players and people.
To develop people who enjoy football, progress through the pathway and stay in the game, we identified the ‘DNA’ of high-quality people in our ecosystem, and in football.
Smart
People who understand the game and link this to the skills needed to perform
Skilful
People who have highly effective & adaptive skills and decision-making under pressure
Athletic
People who are consistently available and prepared for the various demands of football and life
Relentless
People who constantly strive to develop themselves and are resilient to challenges & setbacks
Tribal
People who are committed to their environments and the people within them
These qualities are the NWSF DNA.
It is who we are, and who we want to become.
