The TFC Academy Off Season Program is a high performance development program for young female athletes who are ready to raise their standard.
We select 15 athletes only into one squad who train, recover, reflect and grow together within a culture built on discipline, accountability and leadership.
We welcome athletes from all sporting backgrounds including netball, basketball, soccer, rugby league, rugby union, athletics, triathlon and more.
If you compete and you are serious about your development, this program is designed for you.

The First Nations Academy is a culturally grounded athletic and empowerment program for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and girls.
This program centres identity, belonging and strength.
We create spaces where First Nations women and girls can grow in confidence, build physical capability and learn how we remain connected to culture as we chase our dreams.
Athletes engage in strength and conditioning, education sessions and yarning spaces that honour lived experience and community knowledge.
We understand that talent does not exist separate from culture. It exists within it.
