Year 10 Walk On (Liverpool FC Elective)

This semester-long elective explores the practical areas of holistic football development, exposing Year 10 students to an authentic Liverpool FC International Academy experience. Content in this program will be made up of practical and theoretical sessions, exposing students to content from the LFC IA Youth Development Phase. The content delivered in this elective will continue on from the key skills and knowledge learnt from the previous year’s elective following the LFC framework.

Each practical session will be made up of the following activities from the LFC IA Framework: Early Arrivals; Integrated Warm-Up; Individual/Technical Work; Slice of the Game; and Game. This framework reflects the Club’s youth development model at the Academy in the United Kingdom and across all Liverpool FC International Academy global programs! The subject places each student at the heart of development, covering technical, tactical, physical, mental, and social considerations as part of the Liverpool FC Development Model.
