Training & Preparation
American Football is a niche sport with relatively small player participation numbers compared to most other sports played in Australia, which means you often see the better players with the most game time. Off-season and pre-season commitments are a big part of our sport, this includes film study, weight training, positional training, and most importantly attending practice every week.
Our sport has a place for players of all shapes, sizes, athletic abilities, and skills. Our experienced coaching staff will help guide and develop players to positions that work best for them individually.
