About High Performance S.A.S.S Academy

The High Performance S.A.S.S Academy is an elite youth athlete development program based at Glennon Park in Carrara, helping young players build the speed, strength and skills that translate to real on-field performance. Parents describe a dynamic, supportive and highly professional environment where coaches treat each child as an individual and communication is a clear standout.

Training is organised around six pillars - speed, agility, strength, skill, confidence and mindset - and delivered through weekly masterclass sessions, intensive 360-degree player development programs and school holiday clinics. The academy works across rugby league, rugby union, touch football, tag and AFL, giving athletes structured progression rather than one-off drills, with intake deliberately limited to keep groups focused.

Families across the Carrara and greater Gold Coast area credit the academy with growing their children's confidence, skills and love of their sport, whether transitioning into a new code or pushing toward representative honours. With an experienced founder and a coaching team praised for understanding young players, the S.A.S.S Academy suits committed junior athletes who want serious, well-planned development in a positive setting.
