About Us

Football Focus, based in Adelaide, specialises in junior and youth soccer coaching programs offering a range of soccer programs for individuals, schools and organisations. Choose from our Excellence Program, in school hours programs, OSHC and vacation care programs or holiday clinics.

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.

We offer excellent soccer coaching delivered by professionally qualified coaches, with FFA and FA licences, several of whom have played internationally. All coaches are national police certified.

Our soccer programs are facilitated in a fun but challenging and rewarding, structured
coaching environment.
