SUMMER 2027
REGISTRATION OPENS DECEMBER 1
Summer 2027: ages 10-17, by invitation or technical approval. High Performance is for high-level players and is not open registration.
Summer 2027 registration opens December 1, 2026. High Performance participation still requires invitation or technical approval. Session-specific approval instructions and Byga registration details for approved players will be published here. Booking is not open yet; an inquiry does not reserve a place.
Dates, locations, daily schedules, fees, staffing and inclusions are being finalized. The opening date does not change the entry requirements or guarantee acceptance.
THE DETAIL IS THE DIFFERENCE
High Performance is built around technical precision, earlier recognition of the game and purposeful execution under pressure. Players train with peers prepared to work, compete and respond to feedback.
01 / TECHNIQUE
Technical precision
Cleaner execution, better body shape and repeatable detail at game speed.
02 / GAME UNDERSTANDING
Decisions under pressure
Recognize the game earlier and solve problems when time, space and opponents make the work more demanding.
03 / THE TRAINING GROUP
A carefully assembled group
The age and level of each group should support the intended training environment. Summer participation is for high-level players ages 10-17, through invitation or technical approval. The club will publish the approval process with each session. Expressing interest does not itself confirm eligibility or reserve a place.

THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE WORK
DESIGNED AROUND LGU'S TECHNICAL LEADERSHIP
Summer 2027 is being designed around Technical Director Shaun Tsakiris and LGU’s senior technical staff. Plans include sports performance led by Dr. Drew Cleary and position-specific development, including goalkeeper work.
Those elements are part of the planning direction, not yet a fixed daily timetable or a guarantee of every staff member at every session.
MORE THAN ONE GOOD WAY TO DEVELOP
LGU’s open-registration competitive summer programs remain distinct, purposeful training options. Players do not need a High Performance invitation to take part in Jr. Competitive Player Development or Competitive Player Development, within the age and program requirements published for those sessions.
Looking for winter matches? The Competitive Futsal League is a separate winter offering, not a High Performance admissions route. Its next format, entry options, ages, schedule and fees are being finalized separately.
