Our Mission

Academy Overview

Why do we have an Academy? 

Our Academy was created in response to the growing number of private academies in the Manly Warringah Football Association. This growth in the private sector of football displayed a desire from those playing for not only extra training. But, training of a higher quality than was currently being provided.

This was not an issue until the private academies decided to start there own competition called the Premier Academy League. This led to a number of players leaving local clubs and in tern the Australian football pathway.

This has since led to local MWFA clubs starting up there own extra training and academy programs. We(CC Strikers) being the biggest club in the MWFA as of 2021 are no excpetion to this and in 2021 launched our Academy.

What will players learn

The focus of our Academy is the holistic technical development of our players. This means that players will learn the 4 core skills that cover most aspects of the game. These are

1. First touch/Ball control
2. Striking the ball (passing, shooting, crossing)
3. 1v1 attacking (dribbling and skill moves)
4. 1v1 defending (positioning tackling, timing)

In addition to learning the above core skills, players will also be taught both basic and advanced principles of the game. Players will then be given the chance to apply these skills and principles immediately in a game realistic environment. This is the most crucial step as players often struggle to take what happens in training into a game
