The ONLY football TRIALS IN AUSTRALIA For “Amateurs" to go pro
November 4th-15th
SYDNEY • MELBOURNE • ADELAIDE
Join the Ranks of Europe’s Elite
Where Future Pros Are Discovered.
At Elite Football, we understand that being an “amateur” footballer in Australia often means getting overlooked. While aspiring AFL and NRL players have clear pathways, talented footballers are left to fend for themselves.
That’s why we’ve created the Elite Football Pathway—an exclusive event designed to elevate your game and get you noticed by top European clubs.
What Sets Us Apart
This isn’t just another scouting event; it’s the only one in Australia that consistently turns aspiring amateurs into professionals.
Our pathway, developed in collaboration with La Liga Real Sociedad, CD Leganés, and Tercera Federación’s AD Torrejón, offers you a rare chance to prove yourself.

Right now, you might feel stuck—endlessly posting highlight reels on Instagram, hoping to get noticed.
But imagine walking onto a European pitch, earning the respect of your peers, and signing that pro contract.
Our event bridges that gap, taking you from uncertainty to a guaranteed shot at making your dream a reality.
WHAT'S AT STAKE?
-
Sponsorship: Three players from each event will be sponsored by top clubs like Real Sociedad, CD Leganés, and AD Torrejón, covering all expenses for further trials in Europe.
-
Free Representation: Up to 10 standout players will be offered FREE professional representation, ensuring your talents are showcased to our network of 25+ exclusive European partners valued at $2,495pp.
(Standout females will also be represented across all three events.)
Every year, our events produce more pros than any other academy and tour in Australia. Players like Rico Salem, Orlando Angeleveski, Luke Van Barneveld, and Dominic Scurtu have all turned their dreams into reality by getting signed by top clubs at our recent events.

We understand there’s a lot of noise out there—academies and tours promising the world but delivering little. But when 8% of our players go pro on their very first trial—compared to the industry’s less than 1%—our results speak for themselves.
Our events are designed for players who are serious about taking their game to the next level—whether you're honing your skills to reach the top or ready to join Europe’s elite.
If you're committed to your football journey, it’s time to stop waiting and start acting—take the first step toward your pro career.

P.S. This is your chance to be seen by the right people.
-
What is your success rate?As industry leaders, 8% of players in our rep program get offered a contract or scholarship overseas, compared to the industry average of less than 1%.
-
What is the age range for players eligible for the trials?Players aged 13-23 are eligible for the trials and representation.
-
Do you represent girls football overseas?Yes, just like our male players we represent females in the exact same way.
-
What's the difference between Elite Football and a soccer academy/tour?We are the only football agency in the world that works with pro clubs and La Liga, NOT academies and give "amateur" football players direct access to our exclusive European partners with a guaranteed direct football trial or a FULL refund. Because your success is our success, we even refund you when you sign a contract or scholarship.
-
What does the 1-3 month guaranteed trial in Europe entail?Your football representation includes at least one club option from our list of partners to trial with. Direct experience with the club, training and exposure to the best coaches with high-calibre players, and football opportunities for professional development.
-
How do you ensure the safety and well-being of my child during the trial?We provide comprehensive support, including supervised residency accommodation, medical care, and 24/7 assistance. Everything is organised and handled by the pro club from the moment you land and you're picked up from the airport. Meals included.
-
What kind of communication can I expect regarding my child's progress?The Elite Team will provide regular updates through email, phone calls, and progress reports. You will also have access to Alan & Maurice at all times, 24/7.
-
What happens if my child doesn't get a professional contract after the trial?We’re here to give you every opportunity to succeed and support you on your journey with unwavering dedication. The longer we have to work with you, the higher your chances of going pro. 1st Trip: 8% chance 2nd Trip: 14.5% chance 3rd Trip: 22% chance
-
If my son wants to go overseas, can the parents travel with him?Yes, of course! 90% of our players travel solo, as everything is handled correctly by the pro club they will stay with from the moment they land. They get picked up by them from the airport, but yes, some parents prefer to drop them off themselves, which can be arranged with no problem.
-
Do you represent professional players?While our focus will always be helping amateur football players transition to the pro scene, we have a dedicated team within the company that only focuses on pro players and contracted youth. Email info@elitefootball.com.au if you’re a “Pro” player looking for representation.
-
Do I have to sign a contract to join Elite Football?You don't have to sign any contract to join our player representation program initially. But, if we’re successful together and you get offered a scholarship or a contract with a club, we transition the player onto our agency contract.
-
What’s the Key points of the agency contract?It is a 3-year contract and 5% of the player's wage.
-
Can I really go pro?The truth is, we can’t make that promise without knowing how serious you are about football. We've had players who we thought would go far and did, and others who looked great on paper but could have adapted better overseas. A lot depends on how you handle being away from home. But just the fact you’re here says a lot.
-
What opportunities can Elite Football give me?Elite Football is tailored for amateur football players aged 13-23 seeking real trial opportunities with top clubs, exposure to scouts, and professional football development.
-
Does my son/daughter need a visa?An EU passport is an advantage, but we have signed Aussies in Europe without needing one. There's always a way.
-
Do you provide football coaching sessions before going overseas?We do not.
-
Do I need a highlight video?We've signed players without any highlight videos before. It's a bit tougher to promote you without one, but we'll handle that.
-
Are there opportunities for further education while training?Most of our players are still in school and usually opt for shorter, 3-month trips. You can often arrange to continue your studies online, or we can organise for them to get a sport-related diploma to get a student visa and stay longer in Europe. Plus, clubs prefer players who study as well.
-
What happens if I don't get a trial?We are confident in acquiring at least one trial offering for each player. However, you may request a FULL refund* if we are unsuccessful.
-
What clubs will I be exposed to?Our partners constantly change and grow as we develop new and better relationships. However, whether you're a goalkeeper, attacker, 13 or 23, you're going to a club that suits your wants/needs with the best chance at signing a contract/scholarship.
