Girls Footy Australia

Girls Footy Australia was co founded by Melbourne Football Club player Katherine Smith to further develop and educate talented young female footballers. We are passionate about helping young aspiring female footballer on their journey to success. With access to great facilities, specialised training programs and high-level coaching in an elite environment, we believe that full potential can be achieved. Girls Footy Australia puts an emphasis on perfecting the fundamentals of football; kicking and handballing techniques, decision making, contested ball work, tackling and spoiling. These skills will be further matured while implemented in game-like scenarios. We believe that an environment that is fun and judgment-free, yet competitive will allow for the most progress. While developing an on-field skill set, we intend to educate each athlete in the best pre-habitation and warm up and warm down protocol and run athletic testing to help them understand the demands of the sport at the elite level.
