Juniors
It is club policy that all players be given an equal amount of playing time during the season, as far as it is practicable, allowing for holidays and illness. Note: A player's age is determined by the age they turn in a Calendar year, so if your child is seven now but turns eight on or before 31 December this year, then they are an U8 player.

If your child is between three and five, then they are a Squirt and you can find all the information on our Squirts program here.
