Football Queensland has opened expressions of interest for under-9 to under-16 players to join the FQ Academy in the Wide Bay region.
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.
Player identification sessions for the Wide Bay region will commence in October on the below dates. To sign up to attend the sessions please complete the form below before Monday, 3 October.
