Our 2026 Team Allocation dates are out now for all players wishing to play in any of our winter teams. These dates serve many different purposes, the key purpose being ensuring our players are placed in appropriate teams based on age and skill level. While not all of our teams are selected on ability, it is still important players attend, it is a good chance for players new to the sport to come and give it a go, as well as providing players with 2 weeks of valuable training to get back into football for the season. We also look at teams abilities to determine which divisions we place teams in for 2026. We welcome all players to attend whether you are looking to join our top junior development teams, or, play socially. We hope to see you there, details below:
