Our Minis Program, designed for players turning 6 or 7 in 2024, is a great introduction to football or a further development platform for those with some prior experience. Please carefully read all of the information and register using the link below.
Easts FC has a prescribed training program focusing on players achieving a variety of outcomes throughout the season, including: 1st touch - receiving a pass / Striking the ball - passing and finishing / Running with the ball - changing direction and running at speed / 1v1 - defensive and attacking concepts.
All Easts coaches running training sessions have Football Federation Australia coaching certificates and understand that training is meant to be a fun and inclusive environment with maximum time on the ball. This methodology and application helps embody our community spirit and foster the love of football to all players.
