25.01.2022 It is a common misconception in Football that FUN and LEARNING are mutually exclusive Seventy percent of all children playing youth sports at the age of 10, which is the #1 age for participation in the country, quit by the time they are 13. People like to say they have other interests, but the data points to three main reasons: 1. They are not having fun 2. Too much pressure from coaches and parents to win... 3. Lack of playing time Ive heard statements from people like we dont want the sessions to be all fun stuff. Im of the opinion that I cannot make my sessions fun enough! Having fun and enjoying what you are doing does not have to interrupt with the learning process. In fact, all the research actually argues that it enhances it. #choose #choosefootball #activekids #guideddiscovery #footballacademy #soccercoach #soccer #sydney #KIKOFF #futbol #FUN #learning

23.01.2022 HOW DO I GIVE MY CHILD THE BEST POSSIBLE OPPORTUNITY OF SUCCESS? Be coached based on their individual needs Be clear on a goal and a roadmap how to get there Be strong, healthy and confident on and off the pitch... We love helping young players on their Football journey. Pictured below is one of our academys success stories. Mikey came to us aged six wearing a Manchester United shirt and cap a huge love of the game! Over three years we worked with him developing his core skills and adding fuel to his football fire. We helped him fulfil his ambition to move onto SAP Soccer where he now plays his Football with ST George and we get regular updates of him smashing it for his team! This is what we are all about Good HABITS. Great PLAYERS. Amazing PEOPLE. #soccer #sydney #choose #choosefootball #KIKOFF #football #futbol #footballdevelopment #soccerschool #activekids #canterburybankstown #innerwest #easternsuburbs #socceracademy

21.01.2022 Pizza Toast!! What better way to start the day for a young player. Everybody loves cheese on toast & this version is just a bit fancier & healthier. Its fuel dominant (green on the pie chart) but there is a good portion of protein (red) & health (yellow), so its suitable for almost all occasions & goals.... Cherry tomatoes are also a source of lycopene, which is linked to reducing risk of certain types of cancer. All FDS players have full access to the Choose Football nutrition platform meals. It includes 100s of simple and healthy meals just like this, with colour coded filtering, cooking basics for beginners, integrated online shopping list with woolies & coles.

20.01.2022 Our player spotlight this week is on Javier Rodriguez. 117 Tennis Ball Keepy Ups ... Midfield dynamo for @sdraidersfc and part of the ChooseFootball Performance program for over two years. His dedication has been immense with over 90% attendance throughout. Constant improvement and someone who has set the bar for standards when it comes to youth footballer athleticism. This is an older compilation of Javier, here he is doing assisted chin ups, he is now doing 12 pull ups weighing 10kg heavier. He can move 1.5x his bodyweight using just his lower body. Jumps 1.5x his height in the broad jump. Improved his acceleration & running technique. Learned HOW to TRACK and MONITOR his training and recovery. Most importantly has developed a solid and safe foundational technique in all of the core athlete movement patterns.

12.01.2022 This breakfast looks & tastes amazing. It is a low carb, high protein option but has moderate calories due to the high fat content. Excellent for a day when you have less physical activity or lower intensity training days. The fats however, are principally good monounsaturated ones, & both avocado & eggs have numerous health benefits for immune function, energy, skin & bone health.... #choosefootball #nutrition #colourfit See more

We all know the huge benefits being involved in football can have with young player psychologically. Seven years ago a coach of ours introduced an excellent model called RAISED IT.

01.01.2022 We are excited to announce that we will soon be launching our ONLINE PROGRAM! This will take our academies philosophy, vision, and training program global and give our players access to 24/7 coaching! This is something CHOOSE FOOTBALL has been working towards for a while and we are buzzing to share the results. ... In terms of the players holistic development in the game, group coaching sessions are a key factor in players learning and growth. However, it is not enough to come one or two coaching sessions a week and expect to be an accomplished and well-rounded player. To take that next step players must dedicate part of their spare time outside the coaching setting to honing their skills. This ONLINE program will provide the players with just that. We asked ourselves 4 key questions when developing the program.. The first is SPECIFICITY? Does the practice hold significance and relevance for the player? The second is TIME? Although I am biased, I do understand that children and young people do have other interests and commitments outside Soccer. Therefore, it is important to use the time given to the game outside coach and match setting is used wisely. The third is ENJOYMENT? Watch this space :) See more
