The Aim of the Program
The High Performance Football Development Program has been established to develop and deliver a specialist coaching unit in consultation with the Football Federation South West to provide a sound technical foundation for male and female players between the ages of 5 and 17 years old. This has been developed as an individual based squad program and is independent from any Club involvement. Players simply receive ‘extra’ coaching to supplement Club training and this has been introduced to replace the Football West Academy in the South West Region.We are now at the next phase of the Program and are excited to extend the age groups further to create an underpinning program for all interested players turning six to eight in 2010 (born 2002 to 2004).
As with any learning environment, building sound learning blocks is the key to developing the skills required to move forward. The program is designed to give young players a sound technical base in a structured and appropriate manner, with focus on making each session challenging, varied and fun. This provides a perfect opportunity for fast progression whilst instilling in the players ‘good habits’ thus developing competent players in the future.

Monday morning was here, and all the training sessions and team plays we had all done was going to be put into practice, an 8.30am start for the opening ceremony and the first games kicked off and the adrenalin was running thick and fast! The teams had mixed results but everyone gave their best and headed home, looking forward to relax and talk about the games, and what was ahead for the next day. After the evening meal each captain was to address the 115 strong Leeuwin Army and tell them how they had gone for the day , which was met with either a groan for a loss or a big cheer for a win , this was to become a big highlight of each day and a real bonding session for the players, the “Leeuwin Song” song was to be heard quite a few times and was always sung after the game if we had a win.

What a wonderful season it has been in the LNJSA this year, in reflection such a lot of things happened, we have had our first year of very own Soccer Academy, can i congratulate all the players and coaches for their commitment over the year , and it has been quite apparent that the work they have put in , is paying off as the standard of soccer has gone to a higher level. We have also had our first year of Small Sided Games in the six to eight year old age group. Can I congratulate everyone who has embraced this new format of soccer at this level, the response we have received from parents and players has been great , and i am quite positive that this will benefit the players in years to come, next season will see the Small Sided Game concept move into the nine year old age group keeping us in line with the ruling by Football Federation Australia.
Another major decision the committee made this year was to join forces with four other Soccer Associations in the South West to form Football Federation South West, this was done so to give us more of a say in things happening in Soccer in our region, and we are quite positive that this will be very rewarding in the years ahead.

Please come down to Churchill Park for the premier event of the LNJSA Season.
With many of the players playing their last game in this age category, the Bees made a statement through their play just how much their game had developed. With a goal being scored every 1 to 2 minutes of the game, the Joeys were swarmed time and again. The general pattern of play saw the Bees win the ball, control the ball, look for good passing options and set up numerous scoring opportunities.
Once again it was the team oriented play which highlighted their dominance, with best players a field all over the ground.

MR Dynamite 5 def MR Raiders 3
In last week’s Knock-Out Cup draw the Raiders pulled out their local rivals as quarter final opponent – very much to the dismay of the Raiders. In windy and wet conditions, the boys knew that this would be a difficult encounter, and various tactical moves have been discussed in training last week.
The Raiders lined up without defender Kane Duggan. The toss would be crucial, and it went Dynamite’s way. The game highlighted the strong improvements made by Dynamite throughout the season and the resigned closure to the season by the Raiders.
The Raiders in green started well but Dynamite opened the scoring in the 2nd minute after a defensive blunder. Several attempts to break through the well placed Dynamite defence failed, partially due to a lack of team work, partially due to the strong headwind. Dynamite put two more goals in the back of the Raider’s net in the 17th and 19th minute.
Two of the three goals came from corner kicks and one was an own goal. Then Aaron Locke stepped up. His powerful sprints down the right wing opened up the Dynamite’s defence. His pass into the box in the 22nd minute found unmarked Mehdi Balkhi. However the dangerous forward mis-kicked and the ball went wide.
