Update on Junior and MiniRoos grading

Having finished grading last weekend and assessed offline during the week, our graders and coaches met this morning to agree the best way to form our Junior and MiniRoos squads and teams this season.

We made great progress and whilst there are a couple of corners left to round off, we decided what we think makes most sense to aim for and we're ready to make offers to all kids that graded. We intend to do this age group by age group over the next week or in a few cases, possibly two, so please be patient. However we believe we can make a sensible offer of a team to join for everyone that graded - which is good news and is always our intention as a community club. With about 2 months until the season starts though, we're keen to get people joining as members and training commenced asap.

Below are the teams we think we can form assuming everyone who graded wants to join:

Girls

U8 potentially 1 team

U10 1 team

U11 1 team

U13 2 teams (including some U12 girls)

U15 1 team

U18 potentially one team

Boys

U8 3 teams

U9 1 team

U10 2 teams

U11 1 team

U12 1 team

U13 3 teams (including some U12 boys)

U14 1 team

U15 1 team

U17 1 team

Most of these have coaches assigned but not all so if you are keen to take on a role, please let us know. You will be welcomed and fully supported by a very enthusiastic and collaborative set of volunteer coaches and of course our Junior and Mini Roos coaching coordinator Paul Bryan.

General questions below most welcome.

Thanks
