Welcome To
X'tra Program
training sessions outside of team training
About the programme
The 2022 season will see the introduction of our ‘X’tra program’ which provides 3 additional (optional) training sessions per week outside of team training. All sessions will run at Burleigh Heads SC. Players will be split into groups according to age & ability therefore players of all abilities are welcome. Players from all clubs are also welcome.
The aims of the X’tra program is to provide players an opportunity to work on specific aspects of the game that may not be worked on regularly during team training sessions. The sessions will mainly be centred around personal player development which will help players when in a collective team environment.
The sessions will run weekly alongside the season. There will be weekly payment options and you can select 1, 2 or 3 sessions per week with an option to stop / start at any time with a weeks’ notice.
Over the coming weeks we will be running some Free come and try sessions to give players an incite as to what the sessions are all about and how they will benefit them.
