Our football/soccer programme in Australia is perfect for any football/soccer player who wants to train and improve their skills playing the beautiful game. The programme consists of strength and conditioning work, group fitness sessions and time training and playing for a local football club.
Where will I be?
The programme is based in Brisbane, in the state of Queensland, which is a vibrant young city with plenty to offer. Sport is very popular in Brisbane, with many of the nation’s top teams training and playing there - watching the Queensland Roar play football against the best teams in Australia and New Zealand at their home ground is a must during your stay. This all makes it the perfect location to enjoy while developing your football skills and technique. A comprehensive fitness programme and team based training in Brisbane will also see great improvements in your playing ability, giving you more confidence to fulfil your potential.
What will I be doing?
The training and playing programme will be structured around three key areas: strength and conditioning, group fitness sessions, training and match play. Strength and conditioning involves physical and psychological training such as core stability work, quick lifts and mental exercises to make you, as an athlete, sharper, stronger and fitter. This will provide an important base onto which you can build your technical skills. Group fitness sessions will become an excellent bonding time for everyone as you sweat your way through various different aerobic or circuit training sessions, boosting your fitness and determination to become a better player. Finally, you will train with a local football club and have the opportunity to play matches, testing the skills and fitness you have been working on during the week and enjoying the benefits of team sport in Australia. The friends you make during the programme and through your local club will generate an awesome social life for your coveted time off. There is also a range of adventure activities included to help you make the most of your time in Brisbane.
What can I do after the programme?
After training (and socialising) your socks off, Australia is an excellent country to travel around and the East Coast is a great place to start. Brisbane is ideally located, sandwiched in between the Gold Coast to the south and the Sunshine Coast to the north, surrounding the city with some of the country’s best beaches - obviously nothing quite compares to the fabulous man-made beach in the middle of Brisbane, but the surf might be a little better! Transport for travellers in Australia is excellent so if you decide you want to head north to Cairns, south to Sydney and Melbourne or into the centre to see Uluru, you’ll be overwhelmed by the number of ways to get there. The friends you’ve made during the football programme will undoubtedly want to travel as well so grab your cork hat, your boomerang and your thongs (all will be explained) and head off around one of the most travel-friendly countries in the world.
If you want to experience sport abroad, play competitive football and have the opportunity to travel Australia, this is definitely the programme for you.
