📣 In 2027 all of our FQ ACADEMY LEAGUE Girls teams will compete in League 2 (the second highest level in Queensland) according to a memo from FQ (to be confirmed in the FQ Declaration of Leagues due to be posted soon). In 2027 we will add Under 15, 16 and 18 girls to our existing Under 11,12,13 and 14s Girls.

FQ ACADEMY LEAGUE EOI and TRIALS for Boys and Girls
⭐️ Expressions of Interest are now open for external players to join our Robina City FC Academy program for season 2027. These teams compete in the FQ Academy Leagues against other clubs in the FQ advanced pyramid. In 2027 we will have 15 teams: Under 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 18 Boys; and Under 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 18 Girls.
*** As it will be the first year of Under 16 and Under 18 Girls the fees will be heavily subsidised by the club to ensure the success of the program ***
⭐️ VERY IMPORTANT:
- We are holding an INFORMATION evening on Wednesday 14 October for Girls teams 5.30pm and Boys teams at 6.30pm. This is for players new to FQ Academy League football at Robina City FC. This is a no obligation event. No photos will be taken and no need to register your details before or during.
- EOI’s must be completed by 5pm on 13 October
- On or around 15 October we will clarify the exact time for the trial for your age group and whether it is an open trial for anyone who had completed the EOI OR if it is invitation only. This will be determined by the number of positions available and the number of triallists. The dates in the tile are provided to assist you with organising your time.
- Each age group has 3 dates listed but the 3rd will only go ahead if needed due to wet weather or the number of triallists. Players should attend all trials listed for their best chance of being selected.
- Please note: The decision to conduct trials for specific age groups will be based on player demand and squad requirements. In some instances, positions within an age group may be filled internally from existing academy and pre-academy players following the issuance of offer letters to existing players, eliminating the need for external trials. Should a trial for a particular age group no longer be required, all registered external applicants will be notified no later than five (5) days prior to the scheduled trial date.
⭐️ FQ ACADEMY LEAGUE Players will receive:
• Quality coaching from FA licensed coaches, including 3 training sessions per week.
• Coaching as per a curriculum developed by our full-time TD to optimise development.
• Individualised assessments overseen by our TD as per the Tier 1 assessment process.
• Three training sessions per week with a mix of technical, tactical, skills, and either S & C (14-18) or Futsal (10-13) depending on age, developed by our TD.
• Playing in a league with and against high level players from across SEQ and with a longer training season to develop optimally (with an additional 6+ weeks of training compared to community). Once players move into 13-18s it’s a 27 round season plus finals rather than 18-22 rounds in community.
• Over $270 in merchandise
• Access to the Club physiotherapist for injury screening (usually Tuesday nights).
• Workshops and seminars including sports psychology, mental wellbeing and nutrition
• Potential inclusion in the FQ run State Cups that are mid-year. Almost all of our teams participated in 2026.
