Where We Train

Our training grounds feature both synthetic and natural grass pitches across Annandale and Glebe, giving players the best of both surfaces. Synthetic pitches provide a consistent, reliable playing surface in varying weather conditions, allowing for year-round training and technical development. Natural grass pitches help players develop adaptability, improve their touch and movement, and experience the traditional feel of the game. Training on both surfaces prepares our players to perform confidently in different playing conditions.
