These are:
MJL Teams (Metro Junior League) These are highly competitive squads, offering structured training and a pathway to elite football development.
Divisional Teams (div 1, 2, 3 etc): These are inclusive, community-based teams focused on fun, fitness, and participation, with flexible coaching and less emphasis on high competition.
The season is around 22 weeks with breaks for school holidays.

Juniors teams are predominantly formed around player 'fit' into the team. This looks at aspects such as skill level and competitiveness.
Priority is given to children whose parents volunteer to coach. We then consider factors like whether players live or attend school in Bardon, Ashgrove, Red Hill, or Paddington. There will also be consideration around player best 'fit' for the available team.
Coaches and managers are usually parents from the team. If a parent-coach is not available a coach can be sourced from our senior teams, at a cost to parents.
