Northbridge FC Academy & Development Squad Football

Northbridge FC runs a successful Academy & Development Squad Program.

 

Junior and Youth Football (U8-U18)

NFC Academy Program

The NFC Academy teams play in the NSFA Development Leagues (NSFA JDL, Super League and Diamond League) and the program is the player pathway to the Bulls FC Academy – the NPL program run by Northbridge FC and Macarthur bulls playing in the Football NSW NPL and FNSW GJDL competitions.

  • Northbridge FC Academy Program
    • JDL (Junior Development Leagues) (Boys/Mixed & Girls U8 – U11)
    • Super League (Boys U12-U18)
    • Diamond League (Girls U12, U13, U14, U16, U18/U20)

All teams train twice a week during the pre-season and through the winter season (Feb to August).

NFC Development Squad Program

The NFC Development Squads underpin, and form a pathway to, our Academy program, in age groups where we have a strong player pool and sufficient interest.  DS teams will play in the highest and most suitable NSFA competition available.

All teams train twice a week during the pre-season and through the winter season (Feb to August).
