A message from GFC’s coaching coordinator:
Note that first priority is always a training session with your team. The format of this is decided by your coach and team, whether this is run by your coach or everyone attending the XLR8 sessions.
Beyond this, whether you have a coach or XLR8 that runs a team session, anybody is welcome to join XLR8 and/or Academy training as an extra. Vision Football training is designed for players look to push on with their skills as a Development Option
At this point the Academy program doesn't have capacity to run training sessions for full teams. However, depending on demand this might be able to be reviewed in the future.
