U16 Drag Flick/GK Program, new format in 2025

Next year the program will consist of 4 training blocks throughout the year. Each training block consists of four 60-minute practice sessions, typically held on Sunday mornings from 7:00 AM to 8:00 AM.

We will reach out to the athletes who participated in the first block to invite them to join the second block. If they are not interested, we will then contact athletes who took part in the talent identification day to invite them to join the program.

What is included in each block?

·        Specialised coaching. Drag Flicker and Goalkeeper Coach running each session

·        Video Review

·        XPS Coaches/Athlete platform. Utilizing the XPS platform, athletes will receive feedback and ongoing support to help them track their development throughout the program.

Block 1: January/February

Block 2: March/April/May

Block 3: May/June/July

Block 4: July/August/September

The total cost for each block is $220, which breaks down to $55 per session. This investment provides athletes with quality coaching, individualized feedback, and the tools necessary to enhance their skills and game performance.
