Liverpool FC today announced the launch of its youth coaching programme to Sydney, Australia.

The programme, which is available at multiple venues across Sydney has been organised in partnership with the Australian College of Physical Education, a leading specialist tertiary education institution founded in 1917.

The Academy’s mission is to provide unique coaching opportunities and ongoing training for youngsters aged 5 to 17 across the state of New South Wales to help them learn to play ‘The Liverpool Way’.

Year-round coaching programmes and short soccer school courses held during school holidays will develop participants both on and off the pitch; encourage them to get active and improve their football skills, whilst also improving their life skills such as communication, teamwork and leadership.

Local coaches will be comprehensively trained and accredited through the LFC International Academy global accreditation, to deliver coaching ‘The Liverpool Way’ and to ensure authenticity in coaching to local participants.
