Term 3 - Residency Experience Camp

Come experience amazing learning and development!

The Residency Experience Camp is designed for motivated boys aged 12–16 who play at competitive levels and are eager to experience one of the top full-time football residencies and academies in Oceania.

Morning and afternoon training sessions will focus on developing players in the Christchurch United possession-oriented model of play. Inspired by our developmental partners – TOVO Academy Barcelona – the emphasis is on nurturing each player’s cognition, competence, and character.

Developmental themes will include perception, decision-making, individual positional play, technical development, and transitional excellence.
