Football

Program Overview

The GCAS Football program is pleased to announce that they are working alongside the Brisbane Roar to provide additional support and development opportunities to aspiring young male and female football athletes of the Gold Coast region.

Development programs will include specific skill development for players with regular training being offered focusing on individual skills. In addition to on-field training sessions and competition opportunities, athletes receive access to educational seminars to assist with their personal development off the playing field.  Players will also be taken through specific running sessions in the hope of improving their balance and efficiency on the field.

These sessions will be delivered by professional presenters in their field and value-add to the knowledge being offered.
