The Illawarra Football Academy welcomed Wolverhampton Wanders International Academy coaches to Wollongong’s first Wolverhamption Player ID camp in the opening week of the holidays.
The second week saw West Ham representatives visit for the annual West Ham United Oceania Regional Academy Camp.
IFA director Mark Tyssen said the camps provided unique opportunities for juniors to show off their skills.
“These camps are a great opportunity to gain access to international standard academy coaches with actual coaches who are working at these big UK clubs,” Tyssen said.
“The IFA have been working with some big name clubs over the past few years and have some very exciting camps coming up.”
