Long-time Coerver kid Emily Robertson was awarded the Jim Roberts Perpetual Trophy for Player of the Program at the Coerver Coaching ACT Performance Academy 2023/24.
We asked Emily how the Coerver Performance Academy improved her game and how winning this trophy has inspired her as she begins her career in senior football.
How has being a Coerver kid developed your game?
ER - Through Coerver I have developed not only technical capabilities but also improved my game knowledge and positional awareness. Coerver has also helped me improve my confidence as a footballer and, combined with the technical and game knowledge and positional awareness, has helped me tobecome a stronger footballer and the player I am today.
What do you enjoy most about Coerver Coaching sessions?
To celebrate Female Football Week 2024 Coerver Coaching caught up with long-time Coerver ACT Kid Aisha to speak about her experiences with Coerver Coaching. Asiha has participated in Holiday Camps and has stated she wishes to be the player with the record number of years in the Performance Academy - she's currently at 5. Aisha has also been selected as the Overall Player of the Camp at the 2023 Asia-Pacific Performance Camp and has been given the opportunity to travel with Coerver Coaching to Osaka, Japan.
CC - "What do you enjoy most about Coerver Coaching sessions?"
Aisha - I like working on a bunch of different skills and then using them in small sided games. I also like the fact that there are game days and special sessions where we focus on shooting or game skills.
