The highest level of the pyramid consists of the National Training Groups, which include the national teams for women and girls, men and boys, a mixed team for players under 16, and the so-called overseas team. The goal for all players in the regional system is a smooth transition to these advanced levels of the training structure. The National Training Groups bring together over 40 of the best amateur players who represent the Czech Republic.
REGIONAL TRAINING SQUADS (RTS)
- Regional training squad - region A
- Regional training squad - region B
- Regional training squad - region C
The second level of the pyramid consists of the Regional Training Squads. Their primary goal is to identify and gather the most talented young players aged 13 to 16 from across the Czech Republic, instill positive training habits, monitor their technical fundamentals, and prepare them for a smooth and seamless transition to the National Training Groups and, ultimately, to the national team. These squads are formed through a selection process, with 30–40 players admitted according to established criteria.
