THE spring school holidays are just around the corner, and with them comes another exciting opportunity for local players to take part in the Coerver Coaching holiday camps — the perfect mix of fun, learning, and football development.

This year, Coerver Coaching will be running two camps across Geelong and the Surf Coast:

Torquay — Monday, September 22 to Wednesday, September

Geelong — Tuesday, September 30 to Thursday, October 2

Each camp runs across three action-packed days, giving players the chance to sharpen their skills, build confidence, and enjoy the game in a supportive environment.

The Coerver Coaching method is designed to develop confident, creative players with a focus on ball mastery, 1v1 skills, passing and receiving, finishing, and small-sided games.

What makes these camps so effective is not just the technical training, but the way they are delivered: engaging, challenging, and fun for every child who takes part.

“Over the years, our holiday camps have built a real reputation for quality. Parents often tell us how impressed they are with the structure, the organisation, and the attention to detail,” Coerver Coaching Geelong director and former Socceroo Adrian Leijer said.

“What matters most to me is hearing [from parents] how their kids come home smiling, motivated, and more confident with a ball at their feet. For us, that’s the true measure of success: developing players who not only improve technically, but also grow in their love for the game.”

A huge part of this success, Leijer said, is down to the coaches.

“We are proud to have a team of highly skilled, passionate, and committed coaches who bring energy to every session. Many are current players themselves, with a wealth of experience at both grassroots and elite levels.

Coerver Coaching holiday camps are the perfect mix of fun, learning, and football development.

 

“What sets them apart is their ability to connect with players of all ages, challenge them to get better, and at the same time create a positive, supportive environment.

“We invest time into our own coaching development, which directly benefits every player’s development. Our team take the time to give feedback, encourage kids to be brave in trying new skills, and celebrate effort as much as results.

“It’s this combination of expertise and care that keeps families coming back year after year.”

Whether your child is new to the game or already a club player, Coerver Coaching’s spring holiday camps in Torquay and Geelong are a fantastic way to spend the school break.
