Girls Telstra Football Anytime Program

TELSTRA FOOTBALL ANYTIME PROGRAM


Football Federation Australia, Football Federation Victoria & Geelong Soocer Club are pleased to announce that a girls only Telstra Football Anytime (TFA) program is coming to Geelong

On the back of the success of the Qantas Socceroos, the Matilda’s, the Olyroos and the Hyundai A League interest in football is at an all time high. Football Federation Australia is committed to giving children of any ability the opportunity to experience the fantastic sport of football through the opportunity to participate in TFA and build on the interest and enthusiasm created within the community.

TFA is an introductory football program for girls aged 5 – 12 years and is being delivered nationally through local football clubs. Coordinated by Geelong Soocer Club and using a qualified head coach and volunteer program supervisors the program encourages children to experience and participate in football in a fun game based environment.

For new players and those in their initial playing years, TFA is an ideal football participation program as it is ‘game-centred’ and encourages children to learn and develop through playing the small-sided games and age appropriate activities with a particular emphasis on enjoyment.

For a cost of just $66, children participate in the program and receive a kit of equipment that enables them to participate in football beyond the formal conclusion of the program.

The kit includes:
· a Nike football
· an equipment bag
· shin pads
· markers
· a drink bottle with a squeezy mini ball
· Melbourne Victory giveaways!
