When does the season start and finish?

Can my child play in a team with her/his friends?
Yes. Our policy is to provide children a positive football experience, so best efforts will be made to place friends in the same team.
Should a player be in a first level team and their friend(s) be in the second level team, the player in the first level team would have to opt to play in the second level team.

Our Miniroos and Development teams are coached by a combination of former/current National Premier Leagues players and parent-coaches.
