The School of Excellence facilitates progression of junior soccer players at all levels; from Development Squads to Professional Squads, culminating in the invitation only Elite Squads; plus specialised Girls Only and Goal Keeper Squads. Focus is on individual soccer skills in a team environment.
Two inflatable soccer fields complement our soccer coaching, advancing the small sided game with optimal time on the ball. Both are available for hire.
