Football Queensland has confirmed player identification session dates for under-9 to under-17 players interested in joining the 2024 FQ Academy program.
The FQ Academy delivers a more consistent and visible pathway for aspirational footballers which is quality-controlled and accredited by Football Australia.
The program aligns the Queensland player pathway with the national development and Talent ID system, linking junior players to the Matildas and Socceroos.
To sign up to attend the sessions, please complete the expression of interest form under the region tab.
