Fast-becoming the Academy that players attend for the tune up to their game that they’ve never had, and have been craving – the Northern Elite Academy Training (N.E.A.T) program has opened up registrations for the program running from October 6, 2015 till March 22, 2016 (with a break over the school holiday period).

The program itself is a series of weekly sessions for U12-U16 players on a Tuesday morning from 6:30am-7:30am with Alan McAughtry and Mark Alabakov, who bring their experience and knowledge from National teams, State teams and National league teams to give players an insight into what matters fundamentally at the next level, and what steps they can use to build to that right now.

No fluff, no gimmicks, no circus acts – just a pathway to learn the game and learn the detail that can be a difference maker in an individual’s game.

“The coaches in the NEAT program are committed to helping players improve their game. They are positive and instill confidence in the players as they work on many skills such as dribbling, shooting form, footwork, ball handling, gameplay and defense. My son has participated for a couple of seasons and has enjoyed it immensely. He looks forward to every session, and as he is being challenged his confidence and skill level improves. We are very appreciative of the guidance he has received from the coaches. I would highly recommend this program.”
