ABOUT US

St Prex Consulting was born out of the recognition of the unique business needs of sporting organisations and the valuable lessons that can be learned from successful sports entities. Our approach is rooted in the belief that adapting to new circumstances involves studying and leveraging existing successful practices, methods, and organisations.


Established on the foundation of Impact Soccer's success in 2013 in Australia, our consultancy aimed to address the impact on young football players who didn't achieve their desired playing level. We initially focused on combining education with advanced coaching to provide players with a backup plan and to nurture their ongoing engagement in education. Our primary goal was to equip these players with life skills that would pave the way for long-lasting careers.


Recognising the broader needs of sporting organizations and individuals involved in sports, our focus expanded globally, serving as a bridge between the sporting world and start-ups as well as established companies, facilitating valuable learning and growth

The evolution of Impact Soccer

St Prex Consulting traces its roots back to Impact Soccer, a trailblasing initiative that has left a lasting impact on the sporting landscape. In 2014, in collaboration with Monash University, Impact Soccer played a pivotal role in the Enhanced Elite Athlete Soccer Program, empowering aspiring athletes to seamlessly transition into professional sports while pursuing eligible tertiary qualifications.


The year 2015 marked another milestone as Impact Soccer established Australia's first university-based Diploma of Sport Development in Soccer at Victoria University. With access to top-tier daily coaching, personalised strength and conditioning programs, and comprehensive academic support, students thrived both on and off the field. Over 75% of program participants seamlessly transitioned into tertiary education, with many even assuming coaching roles during their university journey.


Recognised for their expertise, Impact Soccer partnered with Football Australia to deliver coach education courses, empowering students with enhanced confidence, expanded employment opportunities, and the ability to contribute to the Sporting Schools initiative at local schools as part of the Australian Institute of Sport.


Building on this success, Impact Soccer joined forces with Melbourne City FC in 2016, emerging as the largest provider of football coaching sessions in the Sporting Schools program. Over 120 schools and 25,000 boys and girls aged 5 to 10 were delighted by fun, energetic, and professionally delivered coaching sessions, igniting their passion for the sport.


In 2016, Football Federation Australia engaged Impact Soccer to develop a sustainable local pathway for players and increase participation levels in the national Aldi MiniRoos Kick-Off Program. By designing an end-to-end engagement model that fostered participation, engaged local clubs and coaches, and streamlined player pathways, Impact Soccer made significant strides, particularly in growing female participation.


Further international recognition came in 2017 when Impact Soccer became an international partner of Celtic FC Soccer Academy, organizing training camps in Melbourne and establishing ongoing collaborations focused on player exit strategies and educational coaching content. This partnership led to the introduction of the Elite Player Program in Melbourne in 2019, providing young male and female players with a unique platform for personal development and football education. Through self-evaluation, goal-setting, and continuous improvement, participants flourished both on and off the field, embodying the core principles that inspired the establishment of Impact Soccer in 2013.


Embracing technological innovation, Impact Soccer created an online app in 2018, enabling clubs to monitor, assess, and manage players' progress, while also empowering players and coaches to track development and set long-term goals. This comprehensive tool captured vital player performance and well-being data, attendance records, testing results, and other key indicators, enabling coaches to create tailored long-term development plans and clubs to chart a course for future success.
