To help with the development of our elite players, Australian Oztag has created the High Performance Academy for 13 to 15 year old age groups.
This Academy will provide elite coaching for a selected number of players that have been identified as having the potential to be our next generation of superstars.
During the NSW City v Country Championships, our 12 selectors have selected 16 boys and 16 girls to attend the inaugural academy. A further 6 players from Queensland were selected from their recent Tri Series. The ratio of players was based on player numbers in each state.
The team at Australian Oztag are pleased to announce the following players will be offered a position at the High Performance Academy which will take place at the Narrabeen Sports Academy on the Northern Beaches from Friday, the 15th of November to Sunday, the 17th of November:
