SSFA

The Sydney Soccer Football Academy has been founded by ex-NSL and ex-Socceroos player Gerry Gomez . Gerry wanted to establish a soccer academy that specialised in training elite youth league players who already play for youth league teams but still need one-on-one training that allows for more specialist work. This will allow players to develop individual skills and also works on any areas of weaknesses.
Gerry has coached youth teams in the last few years and could see that many of the youth league players that he coached or saw playing, were good team players and athletes but often lacked that first touch that all top players have. They could see that working as a team coach meant that most coaching sessions were quite rightly based around team play and requirements with little or no time available to work with individuals.

The aim of the Sydney Soccer Football Academy is to concentrate on the individual player, develop their strengths, help eliminate their weaknesses and at the same time make sure that these youth players enjoy themselves and have fun in the process.
