What is saturday morning MiniRoos?
MiniRoos is designed for kids of all abilities, aged 4 – 7 years, the nation-wide initiative uses short, game-based sessions to introduce the sport of football to newcomers in an inclusive way. It focuses on learning new skills, being active, making life-long friends and, potentially, unearthing the next generation of Matildas or Socceroos.
We have tailored the national design to ensure we deliver a quality program for our local community. In the years that our club has delivered this program we have found the older children advance quickly and will be wanting to move to competition levels which unfortunately can't be accommodated mid-season. Our competition teams start from under 8 age level and we therefore encourage players of that age to enrol with a competition team, even if they have not completed the Saturday morning program.
