TRAINING

Training for Roman Football combines aspects of different disciplines. As all players will have to be ready for both physical, technical and tactical challenges, our training camps last for 8 weeks; covering everything from striking to ball handling; kicking to wrestling.

Our Training sessions are run by experts in their respective fields, and thanks to funding initiatives by the Association, we are able to extend invites to under 18s who want to participate in the training without taking to the field.
