From 6th January 2026 – 6th February 2026, we’re calling on everyone who works with young players — coaches, volunteers, teachers, referees and supporters — to help us find the next generation of future lionesses.
If you know a player with talent now, or the potential to shine in the future, take just a few minutes to complete the Discover My Talent referral form. It’s quick, simple, and could change a young person’s life.

Since 2021, we’ve received over 7000 unique referrals, with 20% of these players transitioning into the England Talent System at some point — each one a young player we might never have discovered without people like you spotting and championing them.
From January 2026, we’re focusing on players born in 2007 – 2013. Players can come from every corner of the game: small-sided, recreational, girls, mixed, affiliated, and un-affiliated football. Talent is everywhere — but opportunity only happens when someone steps up to make a referral.
Don’t wait — the referral window closes 6th February 2026.
Let’s make sure no talent goes unnoticed. Who will you champion today?
