Aspendale Stingrays

Commencing in Term 3 on Monday 20th July , our weekly skills sessions will transition into the Stingrays Skills Development Program (SDP). This refined initiative is specifically designed for players who are ready to commit to a higher standard of technical training and personal growth.

A New Standard of Development
This change reflects our commitment to providing a structured, high-quality environment. We are looking for players motivated to train with intent, consistency, and a growth mindset.

To maintain this environment, players will be held accountable for their attitude and actions. Please note that participants who are unable to meet these standards of focus and effort may be asked to leave the program.

Program Objectives
The Skills Development Program aims to:

Sharpen Technical Proficiency: Focused drills to improve ball mastery and execution.

Build On-Pitch Confidence: High-intensity sessions designed to challenge players under pressure.

Individual Growth: Complementing team training with a dedicated focus on personal skill sets.

Elite Environment: Grouping players with similar levels of commitment to ensure progressive and effective sessions.

Accountability & Behaviour
To ensure coaching quality remains high, we are introducing a Yellow and Red Card system. This system is designed to manage behaviours that do not align with the programme's professional standards, ensuring every player can train without distraction.

Term 3 Schedule & Details

The program runs for 7 weeks at the Aspendale Gardens Sporting Grounds.

Dates: Monday 20th July – Monday 31st August
Note:
Boys Skill Development U8-U9 - 5pm to 6pm
Boys Skill Development U10-U13 6pm to 7pm

Next Steps
