Fremantle Wolves is a club based on creating an environment which will attract and allow competitive players and coaches to learn, compete and train with others that are likeminded and play with similar aims, goals and abilities.
Players will be offered well planned, WORLD CLASS training sessions, to be carried out with focus and intensity. A competitive environment will be created to ensure the players are intrinsically motivated to achieve maximum benefit from each session and game.
Coaches will be required to utilise digital sport platforms such as HUDL, Sports Navigator and Video Technology to combine with the latest holistic and isolated training techniques inspired by some of the best coaches in the world. Coaches will be educated on creating functional training sessions tailored for their particular players, teams, level of competition, and age group.
