July Holiday Football Camps (U6-U12)
Our Easts FC Football Camps are back for the 2025 July School Holidays with a brand new program launching!
We will be running holiday camps over 4 days of the school holidays for players U6 to U12 (born in 2019 to 2013) to enjoy a structured yet fun program with a focus on quality coaching and, both social and personal development. In addition to this, we are launching a new skills program for players U8 to U12 (born 2017 to 2013) designed to build player confidence, improve ball mastery, and enhance technique on a specific skill being focused on that day.
Registrations are open now with 3 options available each day. Please see all relevant details below.
Monday 7th, Tuesday 8th, Wednesday 9th, Thursday 10th July:
Option 1 - standard full day (9am to 3pm) holiday camp for U6 to U12

Option 3 - new 2hr intensive skill session (9am to 11am) + the remainder of the day at the camp (11am to 3pm) for U8 to U12

Option 1 - Full Day Holiday Camp:

Example day:
Our development camps are a composition of technical skill building, match activities and quiz games that challenge the players physically and mentally throughout the day. Each day is comprised of different activities, within a base format so there is something new to learn every time you attend.
The day is set up like a school day, with a mid-morning and mid-afternoon break and lunch. It includes an 8:30-9:00AM drop off with arrival game activities. Once everyone has arrived, the players will then be split into groups depending on their age and ability, and the sessions will be delivered in accordance to these groups. We then move into Skill Stations where there is a deep dive into individual skills based on each players ability. Small sided games will be used for players to put these individual learnings into action. There are also quiz games and other non-physical activities to recharge and break up the day. We finish off with small sided tournaments before the 3:00PM pick up.

Option 2: Skills Sessions:
This school holiday, we are pleased to offer an additional skill development session for players. Each session is 2-hours focusing on a specific skill, such as striking or dribbling.

By the end of each session, players will have developed a deeper understanding and improved ability in the specific skill being taught that day.
