Hills Football Development is the result of a collaboration between Hills Football and Hills United Football Club, two highly respected entities in the football community. In 2021, they joined forces to rebrand their renowned Development Programs and establish Hills Football Development.

Hills Football Development is dedicated to nurturing grassroots football in the Hills Area, aiming to enhance the overall participation and quality of the sport with a particular focus on the MiniRoos and Skill Acquisition Phase.

HF Development embraces the Hills United Team Model. This model encapsulates the HF Development Philosophy of the development of an individual’s technique, decision-making skills, and love for the game. Moving away from ‘typical’ isolated football drills, sessions conducted in HF Development Programs are holistic, fun, innovative and dynamic.

A vital component in the Hills Football Player Pathway, participants involved in HF Development Programs are given the platform to show their potential and reach their footballing goals.

We are devoted to developing grassroots footballers in the Hills.



HF Development Academy

The HF Development Academy aims to provide local football players the opportunity to develop their skills with qualified coaches, at an affordable price, while still participating at your local member Club.

The Program is run all year round, in line with the school terms, with two different locations, and sessions on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

The Academy also offers Goal Keeper training for players aged 7 to 12 and Girls Only training for girls aged 7 to 12.

The HF Development Academy’s primary focus is the development of an individual’s technique, decision-making skills, and love for the game. Each session aims to maximise the participants’ time on the ball while encouraging quick decisions and teamwork to achieve a common goal.
