WOLVES ACADEMY PROGRAM U5 to U16

The Wollongong Wolves FC Academy offers players an opportunity to be part of the club’s development program and bridge the gap between grass roots and elite football. It is a great way for players to develop their technique and decision making under the guidance of our qualified coaching staff.

The sessions are all specifically designed to be fun and interactive incorporating high performance training methods and practical personal development techniques. The Academy provides the perfect environment for learning to each individual player through our small groups. It’s also a great opportunity for them to meet new friends.
