02 / Sydney soccer, meet Spain

Why Greater Sydney clubs build the off-season around a Spain tour.

Sydney soccer covers NPL Men's and Women's, junior representative football, NSWNL, and the deep school AFC and CIS competitions across the north shore, eastern suburbs, western Sydney and the Sutherland shire. The A-League off-season from May through September aligns cleanly with a European tour window, and the Australian winter is the right time to be training in Spanish sunshine. We run the most Sydney groups in late June, July and September school holidays.

Clubs we serve in your area

Clubs across the north shore, eastern suburbs, inner west, Sutherland shire, western Sydney, the Hills district and the Central Coast.

Ideal group types

NPL and NPL2 junior clubs
School AFC, CAS, GPS and CIS First XI programmes

03 / Three reasons Sydney teams pick Spain

The off-season window from May to September is the strongest training time of year for Sydney squads, and Spain at that point of the calendar gives access to its quieter La Liga training schedules.

Spanish methodology and the modern A-League technical style overlap more than they differ. Players hear the same coaching idea framed in Spain's accent and it cements.

Family travel from Sydney to Spain is already a familiar trip. The tour formats let parents travel on the same itinerary while the squad trains.
