ATHLETIC YOUTH DEVELOPMENT

ONLY AT FIVE DOCK

The Youth Athletic Development Program is a structured performance pathway for competitive juniors across cricket, soccer, rugby league, rugby union, netball, combat sports, and endurance disciplines. The first of its kind in the Inner West, the program combines sport-specific strength and conditioning, small group supervised gym sessions, and individualised gym programs to fast-track on-field performance and reduce injury risk. 

Inside the program:
