These programs are all led by our Technical Development Managers:  TDM (U14+) Lee-Ann Denham, TDM (U10-U13) Amelia Ng, and TDM Tom Fruci (U4-U9).

About the Programs

Development Centre Program (U4-U13):

This program is designed to develop individual techniques and confidence on the ball through a challenging and fun environment led by our full-time technical staff. Players will learn skills that are transferable to the game through a progressive training syllabus. The “TECHNICAL” aspect is the most vital. It is key to not just playing the game but impacting the game in a positive way and it forms the base of all soccer.

‘OWN THE BALL, BEFORE YOU SHARE THE BALL’

We will coach players by emphasizing the following:

  • Individual ball mastery
  • Individual creativity by 1v1 moves
  • Turning and changing direction at speed
  • Passing and receiving techniques from angles and at speed
  • Decision making based games

 

Striker School Program (U10-U14):

The Strikers School Program, run by our highly qualified team of coaches, has been designed to support the best part of the game: 'scoring goals'. Players will develop techniques and understanding of various ways to score that will include:

  • Understanding of turning to score
  • 1v1 quick finishing
  • Combination play to score
  • Scoring from distance
  • Scoring from crosses
  • Scoring free kicks

This truly is GOALS, GOALS, GOALS
