Many young Essendon players are starting to realise their potential this season. The Club now wants to help set some other aspiring young footballers on the right path. The Essendon Football Academy will be held at Windy Hill during the upcoming school holidays and offer children between the ages of 12 and 17 the chance to immerse themselves in an elite sporting club for four days.

The week includes skills sessions with EFC coaches and star Bomber Adam McPhee, presentations from Essendon's high performance staff on weight training, diet and hydration, a motivational talk with Adam Ramanaukas, a tour of the MCG and much more. Don't miss out. Places are limited.
