What a great year of Football!
We hope you all enjoyed your 2024 season and achieved your goals - whether that was improving your skills, bringing home a trophy or bonding with your teammates.
Work is already well underway to prepare for the 2025 season and we are excited to share information about our Development Program (SL | DL | JDL | Dev Teams) at LFC for 2025.
These specialised programs are designed for players committed to improving their skills and competing at the highest level of community football.
In addition to the leagues, we offer a comprehensive Development Squad program aimed at players striving for improvement and aiming for selection in SL, DL, or JDL teams.
Program Expectations
All players selected for SL, DL, JDL, and Development Teams will participate in our Development program, which includes:
Twice weekly training sessions
Elevated expectations regarding attendance, attitude at training, and on game days
Before attending trials, please familiarise yourself with our Player Offers Policy to ensure a smooth process.
Additional Costs
Please note that there are additional uniform requirements and coaching costs associated with this Player Development program, which enables us to provide top-level coaching from our professional team.
Players wanting to play in a higher Age Group - Team Grader won’t allow sign up.
Please get in touch with your Age Coordinator - they will be able to advise if playing up an Age Group is the best option - LFC does not recommend this unless there are exceptional circumstances. Your AC will be able to manually add your player name to the list - please provide them your FFA Id to speed up the process. Please DO NOT falsify your child’s Date of Birth to manipulate the system - speak to your Age Coordinator.
