FAQs
Tell us about The Final Touch training program?
Exercise Scientists and Personal Trainers Sammy Rodgers and Ash Kearney, who both represent Australia in Touch Football, created The Final Touch in partnership with Touch Football Australia. They've recently launched their first daily-workouts program to help everyone – from social Touch Football players to representative players and even their non-Touch-playing family members – get fit and improve the skills they need to become better Touch players. It's the perfect way to train during isolation while you can't play sport.
What can people who download the program expect?
Members will have access to daily workouts designed to help everyone get fit and improve their performance on the Touch field. Members are assigned a weekly schedule with each day focused on a specific component of footy fitness. (You can access to daily sessions, though you can pick and choose what best suits your training schedule and load.) The key sessions include:
- Fit: A combination of aerobic and anaerobic interval sessions that will improve your ability to recover faster, make second efforts and reduce errors during the back end of the game.
- Fast: Short, sharp and explosive sessions to improve your rucking, accelerating into a hold and changing direction.
- Strong: A combination of upper-body, lower-body and core strength workouts that help build your base, keep your body resilient and improve your overall athletic ability.
- Skilled: A variety of ball skills to help with hand-eye coordination, as well as general balance, stability and proprioception exercises.
- Surprise: A combination of any of the workouts above plus some cross-training.
Members will also have access to an entire library of exercises, drills and skills specific to Touch.
What do you get, in addition to daily workouts?
You get coaching tips, blogs, bonus sessions and more.
Is the program worthwhile for social players who just play Touch for fun? Or just people on the representative pathway?

The program is for males and females of any age and any playing ability. Whether you're a social Touch player, an upcoming junior rep or an elite player or referee, this program is for you.
