The Curriculum

A Pathway to Excellence

From Year 7 to 12, students have the unique opportunity to select the Soccer Program as a subject, seamlessly connecting classroom learning with the world of soccer. This integration empowers students to apply practical knowledge and advanced soccer techniques in a supportive and inclusive environment.

The Soccer Program is designed not only to enhance students’ technical skills, but also foster holistic development, including physical, psychological, social, and cognitive growth. We believe in nurturing our boys’ passion for soccer and providing exposure to career-defining pathways within the industry.

  • Weekly SAAS Competitions
  • SAAS Knockout Competitions
  • The Edmund Rice Australia (EREA) Football Championship
  • An Independent School Cup
  • The Tottenham Hotspur Training Experience Tour

Tottenham Hotspur Partnership

A Pathway to Greatness

One of the key highlights of our Soccer Program is the unique partnership with world-renowned Football club, Tottenham Hotspur. Students in the program have the extraordinary chance to work closely with esteemed Tottenham Hotspur Coach, Gerald Lami for 12 weeks each year. This invaluable experience allows for personalised coaching, skill development and understanding of the professional soccer environment.

As part of this partnership, selected students are eligible to travel to the Tottenham Hotspur Training Centre in London for an immersive training experience. This trip allows students to gain insights into the daily life of a professional soccer player, broadening horizons and inspiring ambitions within the sport.

CBC students will have the opportunity to discover their potential, cultivate their passion and embark on a journey that combines the best of classroom learning with the thrill of soccer.
