What does JCFA offer junior Footballers in Melbourne?
Elite Training Environment
Outside of club football, JCFA offers players the opportunity to hone and enhance their footballing skills in an professional training environment. Helping each athlete advance from their current level is the aim of every training session at the Academy. At the club level, this is uncommon because coaches usually prioritise Sunday's result over the development of their players. In addition to having expertise in A-League Academy and overseas Academies, JCFA's coaches have years of experience competing at the top level in the NPL.
Opportunities to play in exclusive tournaments
Since JCFA knows tournaments are a terrific learning opportunity for young players, JCFA plans to participate in every one that is scheduled. For a variety of reasons, many Melbourne teams choose not to participate in them, therefore JCFA provides this chance to ensure that young players do not miss out. For each age category, JCFA enters an elite squad as well as a development squad. To ensure that everyone has the chance to train and play under our Academy, the strongest players from the Academy will make up the elite squad, while the players who don't make the cut will be placed in the development squad.
Detailed Training Sessions
JCFA places a lot of emphasis on the growth of individual players. The aim of the Academy is to develop the player in front of us, not to win games or get better as a team.
With the ball at their feet, the idea is to first help players build a strong foundation. Gaining proficiency with the ball is crucial for moving up the rankings. This is what sets JCFA apart, parents are consistently astounded by the level of detail and the meticulous planning that goes into the exercises and sessions.
The psychological aspect of football is just as significant than what happens after the ball. Being a role model, having mental stability and strength, and comprehending the game are all crucial areas when developing as a player.
