The first training session at Village Park will be on Thursday 15th March so if you are new to the club or sport you can come along to that session to try out. You will need to register to play after that initial session. If squads for teams are full, we will not be able to take late registrations this year or enter any additional teams into the competition until week 3 of the season. So please register early to avoid disappointment and please spread the word that registrations are open.
We encourage kids to play in their age group as this is usually best for their skills. The Mini Roos format is designed to encourage kids to play on size appropriate pitches so that they get maximum touches of the ball and involvement in the game -playing up is not necessarily going to improve skills unless your child really needs the challenge of competing against older more skillful opponents.
