Girls Youth Academy
Our Youth Academy girls play in the FNSW Girls Youth League One competition. Currently we offer u14, u15, u16 and u18 teams.
TRAINING
Youth teams train 3 times per week for 40 weeks per year, starting in early November and finishing the following September. They train on synthetic fields at Christie Park and ELS Hall Park.
CURRICULUM AND PLAYER DEVELOPMENT
Our Youth Academy curriculum will follow the Football Australia Game Training and Performance Phases and will be mixed with in the Ravens philosophy and models of player development. Ultimately, we are creating a player the fits into the Australian way of playing football, that also possess the Ravens gene. We are continually progressing and assessing our approach to player development within the youth phases, to ensure we remain contemporary in our approach.
PATHWAY AND PROGRESSION
We have an internal target of retaining at least 70% of our players in each team. Developing and growing with the player is a key part of the Ravens Academy approach, both on and off the field. We understand that we play a part in their development into adulthood during these important years.
Next up. ⚡️
