2021 - Balmain & District Football Club

Have your say about our Clubhouse!

Have your say about our Clubhouse! There’s a lot of discussion about Callan Park right now, and it’s important our members’ voices be heard.

One important way to do this is by completing the Greater Sydney Parklands’ Survey about the future use of buildings at Callan Park.

Be sure to tick “Sport & Club Amenities” along with other ways you would like to see the buildings being used. Wherever you have the chance to include or mention “Balmain DFC Clubhouse”, please do.

Lastly, please share the survey with friends and family in our sporting community!

Back to Football Training Program

The last thing we want is for players to return to football after all these months of lockdown – only to hobble off the field again because of an avoidable injury.

Over 45 player John and his teammates had the same concerns. John reached out to us with the idea of a pre-season training program to ease the transition for members back onto the field – particularly those with a few more years of experience.

Our fantastic physio partner Balmain Sports Medicine (BSM) stepped up to the mark, with Matt Wiadrowski putting together a tailored series of exercises for members to work through in the week’s ahead.

Click here for a PDF of the ‘Back to Football’ Training Program, and get started on those squats.

We’ll also be sharing a few videos created by BSM via our social media, which demonstrate proper technique in some of these exercises (view the first video below). To stay in the loop, make sure to follow the club on Facebook, Instagram and/or YouTube.

Stay safe, find your fitness and be kind to your body so we can all come back strong after the long break.
