Gippsland United FC are now accepting player Expressions of Interest for our Skills Acquisition Program (SAP) for 2024. Trials will commence in March, with the program set to commence in April and run for a period of 18 weeks (3 × 6-week cycles).
As a key aspect of Football Australia’s National Curriculum, the implementation of SAP is to perfect and accelerate the skill development of players at the critical ages of 9-12. This is the age group universally acknowledged to be the optimal mental and physical phase that allows children to learn motor skills.
The program is offered to all boys & girls aged 9-12 years across the Gippsland region, with hubs in South Gippsland (Wonthaggi), East Gippsland (Sale/Bairnsdale), Central (Morwell) and West Gippsland (Trafalgar/Warragul).
Hubs will only be established depending on player numbers from each location.
The SAP operates under our A Diploma Technical Director and delivered by like-minded coaches from Community Clubs.
