The Gambier Centrals Soccer Club would like to congratulate our seven young Lions who took part in the recent Football South Australia Regional Camp held at West Beach in Adelaide.

The camp is an opportunity to identify talented regional South Australian players, exposing them to highly experienced and accredited coaches such as Richie Alagich (Skills Acquisition Trainer) and Cristiano Dos Santos (Girl’s Technical Director), with the aim of being selected for Football South Australia’s Regional State Teams.

Well done to;
Isla Dickson
Louise O’Callaghan

Tiarn Powell, Participation Officer at Football SA, said the camp was a sorely missed success in showcasing football talent across South Australia last year, given its forced absence due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In previous years, the camp has been used as an opportunity to identify and prepare players to travel to international tournaments across the globe, such as the Ultimate Fiji Cup in 2018 and Singapore in 2019, showcasing the best regional talent the state has to offer.

With international travel unlikely to feature in the near future, Football SA is shifting its focus to local activity within the football community, exploring opportunities for all South Australian players across the state. The next camp will be held in the July school holidays, with details to be confirmed in the coming months.
