TIER 3 & 4 -Development Squads

Athletes training in the Development Squads/Tier 3 & 4, have either developed from the Emerging Talent Hubs (ETH), have been selected from the VSA Pathway Open trial in October, or have been identified through Talent Identification platforms such as SASI Talent Search, State Schools Cup, and National Schools Cup. The focus of this group is to introduce the extremely important fundamental technical and physical development needed to perform at the highest level of sport. Athletes within the Tier 3 & 4 squad balance their study, VSA Pathway training, others sporting commitments or activities. Athletes commit to attending the VSA training once a week (Tier 3 can be up to two times per week) and will compete in local competition.
