IT'S ALL ABOUT EXCELLENCE.

The 82 Football Academy is all about excellence and is the brainchild of New Zealand coach & former 1982 All White Ricki Herbert. The timing is perfect with football globally in a growth phase and many New Zealand families becoming more involved in the code. The game of football appeals to so many young New Zealanders, fast paced, entertaining and very much part of the Sky digital era. The Wellington Phoenix is an important part of this domestic cultural change. The Academy is very much aimed at developing the skill base of both boys and girls and is a commercial venture with no affiliations to football bodies in New Zealand.

THE 82 FOOTBALL ACADEMY WILL BE BASED IN QUEENSTOWN

The first courses will be held in January 2010. There will also be continuous short programs running across New Zealand and these commence in Christchurch and Wellington from September 29th 2009. Our eventual aim is to take programs to Australia and across Asia.

The initial idea here is to seek out grass roots interest in the sport and make the Queenstown experience the next step in an endeavor to find extraordinary talent. The Academy courses will generally be 3-4 days in the initial phase, with talented children then invited back for longer courses and more intensive programs. The target age range is 9-14 year olds.

The critical path is to find talented children, work with them on technical ability, mental approach and physical wellbeing. The Academy will then look to run residential programs where children from 14 years of age will be invited to base themselves in Queenstown during term time and work intensively on their approach to the game.

This approach will hopefully provide Academy graduates with the skill base and mental agility to move forward within a chosen path. The US college scholarship system is of great interest as it provides an opportunity to progress into professional football, but with education forming an important tool along the way.

A WORLD CLASS POOL OF TALENT

Ricki Herbert and former Socceroo Richard Johnson provide a huge wealth of experience in terms of high level coaching and an innate understanding of the game.
