WHAT ARE DEVELOPMENT SQUADS?

• The clubs run combined squads for the stronger and more enthusiastic players who want to develop their skills.
• Teams practice on Astroturf, 2x per week starting in February with a dedicated professional coach from SoccerKickStart, junior coaching providers to the A-League’s Western Sydney Wanderers.

WHO DOES DEVELOPMENT SQUADS?

• Girls Teams (10G, 11G, 12G, 14G) and mixed Boys/Girls teams U8-U13.
• If you think there is interest in another group, please let us know by contacting the club.
• The top development teams are normally very strong and competing in division 1 against other Academy/Development teams. Some age groups may have multiple teams, in these cases the second team might not be in division 1, but is made up of players that are with good and fairly similar skills that want to improve their soccer by having top level coaching. The top level u10G-u14G Girls teams in 2017 compete in Diamond League, the NSFA’s division 1 girls competition. We also aim to have other girls Development squads in other age groups and would like to have more than 1 girls development squad in age groups where the player interest is there.

COST

We expect to finalise the cost for 2017 at less than $999 in addition to club rego. This covers the professional coaching (two training sessions per week plus game day, close to 100 hours), the astroturf field hire, and the training kit. Any queries please email admin@lcfc.com.au.
