ACADEMY
Pluim Park, Lisarow, Central Coast NSW
The Football Grounds has been running football aka soccer development pathway programs since 2017.
TFG was founded by the 2023 Championship winning Central Coast Mariners Head Coach and former Premier league and A League player Nick Montgomery. Nick has now moved to Scotland to coach there but his academy continues here with amazing coaches.
Originally the programs started running from an indoor centre in Erina however after being closed twice due to Covid lockdowns for long periods of time, the decision to move the programs to an outdoor venue was made.
From January 2022 The Football Grounds offically moved to a new home.............. Pluim Park in Lisarow, the home of football here on the Central Coast.
We now have three 5 a side pitches allowing us to run more programs at the same time making the family life juggle struggle of kids after school activities a whole lot easier!
The 40m x 20m synthetic pitches with the latest synthetic turf system maximise play and safety for all players and allow for training to run during most weather conditions. There are male and female change facilities and an on site cafe.
Our mission is to provide excellent coaching and to support all the local football clubs here on the Central Coast.
We offer programs from beginners to elite from 3yrs -14yrs old. Please visit our kids programs section to read more. We run term time only and offer school holiday clinics in the holidays.
Everyone is welcome to come and try a session for free before committing to the term. We accept active kids vouchers. We welcome registrations any week of the year.
Please explore the rest of our website for more information and please do not hesitate to contact us if we can help you further.
Thank you
