About the Centre of Excellence

Aim

To identify and develop talented junior footballers within the Woodville West Torrens promotional zone, metropolitan and country, and provide them with a pathway to play football at the highest level.

PROGRAM OUTLINE 

The Eagles Centre of Excellence (CoE)  is an innovative program that will provide an opportunity for all junior footballers and coaches from within the WWTFC promotional zone to improve their football skills and knowledge.

The CoE will provide these talented players with education and training in all aspects of football including skills, fitness, nutrition and game sense to initially prepare them for opportunities that lie ahead including State Under 16′s, Under 18 football with the Eagles and beyond.

Underpinning the program will be our Metropolitan and Country Talent Squads from which participants will progress through into the CoE.

CRITERIA

All footballers that live within their respective SANFL Clubs promotional zone are eligible to represent their respective League Club. Father/Son players are also eligible regardless of where they reside.

SELECTION

Each local Junior District League Club and School from within the Woodville West Torrens promotional zone, in consultation with the WWTFC Football Talent Manager and CoE Head Coach, will nominate footballers from within their teams with the potential to play at a higher level.

Whilst the CoE will be tailored to suit the needs of the most talented footballers from within the WWTFC promotional zone participants in Junior Club and School competitions may receive an invitation at anytime into our Talent Squads with the possibility of being added to the CoE.

Any additions to or omissions from the CoE will be at the discretion of the CoE Head Coach in consultation with the WWTFC Football Talent Manager.
