Footy training for Yorke Peninsula players
The Peninsula is around two hours from Woodville, and its league covers everything from Copper Coast towns to farming districts that combine three towns into one club. A junior here is on the Eagles’ radar — and mostly training alone.

Set it up for Yorke Peninsula
Four things, in the order the app asks them. None of them needs a coach.
Choose footy, then your team nights
Onboarding asks “When do you train with your team?” Pick your club nights — Yorke Peninsula Football League or wherever you play — and your gym and conditioning are scheduled around them, lighter the day after a big one. Tell it your equipment and any niggles and every exercise is fitted to both.
Match the program to your league’s start
The app treats March as the start of the footy season. SANFL and community footy in South Australia starts in April, so you can hold the pre-season through March by setting the phase yourself. The phase lives in Program → Your year.
Know your numbers on day one
Your first testing session is ready immediately: 2km time trial, Bench press 1RM, Max pull-ups, Trap-bar deadlift 1RM, Running vertical jump. It is re-run every 8 weeks, and the results re-price your training weights and conditioning paces.
Put your suburb on the board
In Social → Town, set where you train. Your minutes count toward that town’s weekly conditioning and strength top-10 boards — only the town is kept, never your location.
What you start with, by the month you join
Every block is four weeks — three building, one deload — so a free month is one complete block.
The footy year in Yorke Peninsula
- October
- Off-season. Rest, then rebuild general strength.
- November – February
- Pre-season, through the hottest months. Aerobic base first, then strength, then power.
- March
- Final preparation. Practice matches and testing.
- April – September
- Season. The SANFL runs April to September with the Grand Final on the penultimate weekend of September. Volume comes down, weights hold.
Warm summers, windy winters
Summers on the Peninsula are warm to hot, and winter footy is often played into a wind off the Gulf. Get the pre-season running done early in the day, and treat the warm-up on a cold, windy ground as part of the session, not a formality.
Coaching a side in Yorke Peninsula?
A club licence is A$8 per player, per month (minimum 5), and every player on it gets full Train Smart membership at no cost to them. You write the block once, it lands in each player’s app, and the console shows who actually did it.
