UNDER 7

Focus is on learning and developing basic skills including passing, catching and running with the ball.

Additional skills covered include evasion, tagging and communication.

Players also learn the basics about game-shape including attacking and defending formations, as well as offside.

Training takes place on Sundays 10-11:30, there is no midweek training for this group.

Matches take place on Sundays between 10:00 and 11:30, instead of training where scheduled.

All matches are “friendly” against a range of teams in the region, travel beyond an hour is kept to a minimum.

Matches are good natured and focus on learning and enjoyment with a recognition that sport is inherently competitive.

All players in attendance will take part in matches.

The season runs from September until May.

New players are always enthusiastically welcomed and are encouraged to attend a couple of training sessions before any commitment is made to be sure they enjoy the game.

The start of the season is a great time to learn the new skills for each age-group and get to know team-mates but new faces later in the season are just as welcome.

Subscription fees must be paid at the start of the season or within the trial period for new players.
