The Elite Player Performance Plan (EPPP) will come into effect from next season after the Premier League and Football League shook hands on its implementation last October. The EPPP will see the abolition of the current ‘90-minute’ rule under which academies can only sign players within 90 minutes travel of the training ground. But the new four-tier system will see each club graded according to facilities, coaching staff and funding, among other criteria with a fixed tariff paid for players under 18 according to the time a club has invested in him – replacing the tribunal system. Academies will be reviewed every two years and re-categorised if necessary. www.crewechronicle.co.uk/crewe-alex-fc/crewe-alex-fc-news/2012/06/20/crewe-alex-apply-for-category-two-status-in-new-eppp-academy-system-96135-31218780/
