The Scottish FA Skills Challenge aims to test and develop the individual skills of young players - improving their performance in a range of techniques including heading, dribbling, passing and shooting.
It has been developed from a programme that has run in Scandinavia for many years and has produced several professional players including Sami Hyppia and Antti Niemi.
