Macquarie Development Program (MDP)

The Macquarie Development Program (MDP) is designed to provide a structured and high-quality training environment for players aged 8 to 14.

This program is open to community players in 2026 who are looking to grow and develop their skills and/or progress into higher levels of competition.

The MDP consists of 8 x 1-hour sessions, with Boys and Girls groups alternating on a fortnightly rotation. Each session will feature Skill Development Activities and Small-Sided Games, focusing on the four core principles of football:

  • Goal scoring
  • Passing and receiving
  • Defending
  • Dribbling

Sessions are delivered by a highly experienced coaching team and overseen by the Macquarie Football Technical Director. Each participant will also be observed by the Technical Director and will receive individual feedback towards the conclusion of the program.

Trials will be held in February and March 2026 (dates TBC).
The program will run from April to August 2026, with training scheduled on Monday nights (dates and times TBC).
An Expression of Interest link will open in 2026.

Cost: $100 for all eight sessions.
