Registrations are now open for Boomerangs FS Winter Futsal Academy for 2017.

The Academy will provide a program of futsal skills development and game understanding for both girls and boys looking to improve their game. The skills development delivered through the program will improve the player’s ability in both futsal and football.

This is the academy’s second year and builds on the success and high levels of interest in 2016.

Sessions will be held under the following age group splits U12, U15, U18 boys and U12, U15, U18 girls and a specific goalkeeper session – dependant on numbers. (U12s can be 9/10/11 and 12-year-olds, U15s: 13/14/15-year-olds and 16/17/18-year-olds in the U18 group)

The players will train weekly (a ninety-minute session) for 10 weeks over the course of the second school term with some of the best futsal coaches in the ACT. The program will be centred on core individual technical and tactical skills required to participate at the highest levels and will be oversighted by two of Australia’s highest qualified coaches, Sam Smith and Kristian Collins, who both currently hold an AFC level 2 license.

Note also that for those interested in continuing into the summer season with the club (and if selected), pre-season for the FNSW Premier League competition will commence in Term 3 and there are plans to again compete in the NSW State Championships in Sydney in early October. Additionally, the club is looking to arrange an away trip/tour during the winter for a number of teams. There will necessarily be additional costs for participation in any competitions.

Training sessions will be on either Friday or Sunday nights at Stromlo High. Please indicate preference in the form below.

Participating players will be supplied with a Boomerangs training sweater and a futsal ball. (Training shirts will also be available for purchase if players do not already have one).

Any players wishing to register interest in the program, please fill out the form below by Sunday 9 April 2017.  Squad sizes will be limited, so register your interest early. The cost of the program will be $270 per player.

Boomerangs FS Unveil First Winter Futsal Academy
20 February, 2016 – Canberra, Australia

Demonstrating the club’s commitment to futsal, both in the ACT and nationally, Boomerangs FS is excited to announce its first ever F-League Academy Program which aims to provide a clear pathway for junior players in the ACT and region to the Boomerangs senior F-League teams and to national representation (for the men, the Futsalroos).

The Boomerangs F-League Academy Program will support players in most age groups with U12, U14, U16, U18 boys along with U13, U15, U18 girls and a specific Goalkeeper Academy (all ages). The first of its kind in the Nation’s Capital, and with hopes to build the program into a complete high performance system, the players will train once a week for 20 weeks between March and August with some of the country’s finest aspiring coaches.
