Grading/Trials and Team Allocation

Pre-season training will commence late Jan, 2025. We do not run formal trials for our junior players. Instead all players are observed during this pre-season period by our Technical Director and Junior Phase lead. This gives them more time to understand all players skill development/stage. Players will start to be moved into groups during training as they continue to be observed in a variety of scenarios. Ultimately players will be grouped into teams in March.  

​​​​

​Coaching 

• Teams cannot run without coaches​​

• ​​​All coaches receive mentoring and session planning from our Junior Phase Lead and Technical Director

• Player fees for coaches are waived in recognition of your commitment to the role. 

• If you are interested to find out more please complete our Coaches Expression of Interest form and stay tuned for our Coaches Information Session. Date and time TBC.
