FQ Coaches Lab
The FQ Coaches Lab provides a valuable opportunity for community coaches, Club Coach Coordinators and those who have recently completed a C Licence to gain extra advice and support, with a key focus on session design and delivery. The informal workshop format will allow coaches in attendance to be grouped in order to receive tailored guidance based on the age and level of the players they’re coaching.
CPD Hours
As mandated in the AFC Coaching Convention, from 1st January 2019 all Football Australia Advanced Coaching Licences are valid (accredited) for three consecutive years. New licenses will be issued for three years, and existing licenses will be revalidated for three years when re-validation is due.

Another massive year of #FQAcademy events ahead! ⚽
Across the year, ten Football Queensland carnivals will provide consistent opportunities for FQ Regional Academies, FQ Academy League clubs and community clubs to compete and continue their development in 2026.
These events reinforce FQ`s commitment to delivering meaningful match opportunities for players and referees across the state, with the Pacific Championships also giving community clubs the chance to compete against a diverse range of teams to gain valuable experience beyond their region.
The FQ Academy remains the only nationally recognised pathway in Queensland to state and national team selection, and these carnivals support talented players on their progression into a high-performance environment.
