Dependent on player numbers and coaches, we aim to field a maximum of three teams per age group. To provide an environment for players to develop and enjoy the game, our aim is to select balanced teams with like-minded players of similar ability all playing at the appropriate level for their age group and skill level. Team selection decisions will be made by the Team Coach in conjuction with the Technical Director and Junior Coordinators, and we aim to have this process completed by the end of February 2018 at the latest (with the competitive season commencing in mid-April 2018).
2018 training commences at 6pm Tuesday 6th February. For the first week, all Mini-Roos teams will be training on Tuesday & Thursday nights. Under 7 teams will have 1 x one hour training session per week. Under 8 to 11 teams will have 2 x one hour sessions per week and junior girl’s teams will have 2 x 1.5 hour sessions per week. Training sessions will be held on either Tuesday & Thursday nights or Wednesday & Friday nights; this will depend on the coach’s availability and ground access. We will advise each team’s nominated training night and times for the remainder of the year during this first week.
We have also included a link below regarding our 4 to 6 year old Saturday morning Lion Cubs Program for those that may be interested. Please feel free to forward this information to family and friends that may have children in these age groups. Term 1 of the program commences at 9.30am Saturday 3rd February, 2018.
