Teams

Outside of teams that are trialled - the club does its best to try and keep players together but it must be noted that

* as players age and teams get larger and move on to larger fields being 5 a side, 7 a side, 9 a side and to 11 a side then teams must change.

* some players do not continue and 

* new players to the club must be accomodated

* players registering later are harder to accomodate to existing teams as allocation of teams does begin as registrations come through. It is more likely you will have a larger group of previous players in a team if you register early.

Equipment/Playing Kit

• To participate all players must have Club shirt, socks and shorts (Parents are responsible for purchasing the club kit) and Shinpads. Details on how to purchase club kit can be FOUND HERE . NOTE-PLAYERS IN THE BAYWIDE YOUTH LEAGUES WILL BE ABLE TO USE OLDER SENIOR KITS THE CLUB HOLDS IN STOCK
