Coach Sam Glover

Stop guessing this offseason - have something you can measure your running against this offseason

The 3 min max running test allows us to calculate your critical speed and D-prime values - from this we can personlise what running speeds/distances you should be aiming for in your reps to optimally develop your running fitness

Struggling to put all your training together and get results on game day?

Most players just do skills in isolation. That’s not enough.

You need to combine running, strength, skills, and a plan that fits the season.

That’s why everything now lives under The Complete Footballer banner - it’s all built for motivated players who want to accelerate their improvement.

The footy season is coming to a close which means we are into the footy offseason

Do you try and improve your endurance? Your speed? Put on some size?

You try and do all of it and burn out. Or do none of it and arrive at preseason in the same spot as last year.

It doesn’t have to be like this

Identify 1 or 2 areas you want to focus on and stick to them

Consistency and direction is the key.

Take control this offseason - follow along for how

Handballing is a critical part of footy and it is constantly undertrained

Use these drills to start improving different aspects of your handball ability

Speed handball - trains ball handling and disposal speed

Juggling handball - train decision making and reaction time

Lateral walking handball - trains handballing laterally and out in front of the receiving player

Follow along for more drill ideas

Dropping marks on the lead? Struggling to mark the ball out in front?

Let’s break it down first by training the base skill - catching the ball

Then progress to non-pressured marking on the lead

Building the fundamentals makes you more consistent on game day

The most important kick in footy - deceptively hard to execute

Forward 50 kick connection can win you the game - missing them regularly makes the job as a forward really difficult

Drive through the pressure, then balance and take pace off the kick

Practice, reflect, adjust, repeat

Missing easy kicks in games? It’s usually your basics letting you down.

Drill balance first - stationary kicks, one leg only.

Progress to one step for hand-to-foot timing

Then build into kicking on the move

Simple progressions, but this is what makes you reliable when it counts.

🏉 That’s a wrap on this term’s School Holiday Footy Clinics!

Massive shoutout to everyone who showed up despite the wild weather!

We worked on the fundamentals, sharpened up our wet weather skills, then built the session into some match-style games to build that on-field instinct.

But above all - we had an absolute blast

We are planning to run more clinics like this into the future - so follow along and tell your friends to come to the next one 🔥

Getting bodied out of contests too easily?

Taking marks inside 50 as a key forward isn’t just about brute force - it’s about craft

Taking back shoulder, quick side changes, reacting when the kicker begins to motion for their kick

Lose your opponent with a drop step and give yourself a free run at the footy

Outsmart beats outmuscle every time
