GIRLS YOUTH PROGRAM

Claudelands Rovers are excited to announce a Girls Youth Program, in partnership with the Waikato Football Academy. Our ambition with this new program is a girls only Skills Centre with female coaching delivered in an environment that nurtures player confidence, supports ambition and provides challenges for those who seek it.

The overarching aims of this new program are:

  1. A Girls only program designed specifically for the female footballer. The Girls Youth Program will be based on international research, offering appropriate training methodologies and age specific development opportunities for youth females. 
  2. To provide a safe, fun environment for girls to join in, continue to play and to challenge talented players to extend their skill set.
  3. Qualified, personable coaches following a specified development protocol, designed by NZF for the ‘kiwi footballer’.
  4. A holistic approach to female development, its more than just football. Its also ensuring that we give girls all the tools they need to succeed – physical, mental, social and emotional.
