Coming up in March, our local Fit4Football Player Welfare Officer Shane Carvell is running FREE workshops to teach coaches the recommended injury prevention warm-up programmes.

There are separate workshops for Junior coaches and Senior/Youth coaches. Each workshop is being held in three locations: Dunedin (Mon 12th March), Invercargill (Mon 19th March), and Timaru (Mon 26th March).

These workshops are FREE of charge to coaches and managers.

The 11+ Fit4Football programmes are injury prevention and performance-enhancing programmes promoted by NZ Football in partnership with ACC, helping players to stay injury free and playing to the best of their ability. The 11+ program has been endorsed by the likes of FC Barcelona, Germany, Spain, Brazil, and many other national & club teams around the world.
