At the Goal Australia Football Academy our mission is to produce Australian footballers of the future by nurturing the natural talent of youngsters from the Sunshine Coast and beyond.
Our Academy uses the latest coaching techniques, field equipment and has created a fun learning environment to develop technique and skill in young players. Our aim is to give players confidence and encourage players with flair. We believe in teaching good sportsmanship and respect for fellow players and game officials.
The G.A.F.A. welcomes all young players regardless of their ability - we offer something to each and every player who joins the Academy. We want to help young players to be the best that they can be.
What ever your ability or level we would like you to trial and experience how Professional clubs train their young players. Our intention is to make the Goal Football Academy training program affordable and accessible to as many young players as possible. Students will be graded and will train in appropriate groups with players of their own age and ability level. Every effort will be made to ensure that all players are placed in the best group that will help them progress rapidly.
"The best time to teach techniques is in the formative years of age 6 to 13 years. This is when young players absorb new skills that will stay with them for a lifetime. The better one can play the game the more one will enjoy it and the longer players will stay in the game."
