“Kevin De Bruyne is completely different: His vision is simply unbelievable.”
– Michel Sablon
How did Kevin De Bruyne and the current golden generation emerge? What makes their journeys different?
The Belgian model of youth development is seen by many as a world-leading framework which has led the country from #66 to #1 in the world in the men’s game and a move inside the top 20 in the women’s game.
In our latest webinar, Player Development Project is delighted to host Director of Coach Education at the Royal Belgian Football Association, Kris Van Der Haegen. Also working as an Assistant Coach of the Belgian Women’s National Team, Kris was a key member of a small group who implemented massive change in Belgian football, changing the way youth football is delivered, resulting in significant success on the world stage.
PDP Co-founder, Dave Wright will be joined by PDP Technical Advisor, Dan Wright to host Kris for an interactive and in depth conversation around the Belgian approach to youth development.
We will cover a range of topics including:
- The catalyst for change
- Game formats
- Small sided games

- Session design and interventions
- Much more
Join Dave and Dan as they host a pioneer and world leader in youth development. Ask questions live and join the discussion with coaches around the world as Kris shares his experiences and practical advice for coaches working in all environments.
