Train Like a Pro Before You’re One - A Week Inside Residency Life
A Week at Highlanders Residency
What does it really look like to live the life of a professional player while still in high school? Step inside a week at Highlanders Residency and you’ll see why our program prepares players to thrive at the next level.

Tuesday: 8:30 - 10:30 AM - On-field training. 11:45 AM-12:45 PM - Strength & conditioning at Eagle Ridge Centre.

Friday: 8:00 - 09:30 AM - Final on-field session to prepare for match day.
Saturday: VISL Men’s Division 1 match or Jackson Cup fixture - playing against grown men in a demanding, physical league that accelerates development.
Throughout the season, players also attend video analysis sessions, classroom talks, and mentorship meetings - all designed to sharpen the tactical brain as much as the technical feet.
Facilities are top-class and close together - City Centre Park for meetings, Eagle Ridge for strength work, Goudy Field for daily training, and Starlight Stadium for big game nights.
When you train like a pro before you are one, you’re ready when the real opportunities come. Just ask the six Highlanders alumni who signed to German clubs this past season.
