FAQ
How old does an athlete need to be to join?
Our club starts training with athletes who are, or will turn, 9 in the current calendar year. Athletes older than 9 are also welcome to join. We currently do not have any program for athletes younger than 9.
How does an athlete join (register)
Athletes aged 9-13 can register for the club by attending:
-
The Annual General Meeting in late February (details posted on the club's website in early February).
-
The Parent's Information Meeting at the start of April (details posted on the website in mid-March).
-
Practices starting in early April at Percy Perry Stadium.
Older athletes (ages 14 and above) can register at the same times or year-round with the Head Coach's approval. It's advised they consult the Head Coach to ensure the program fits their needs. For more registration details, including links and fees, contact the club directly.

How many events can or should my child participate in?
Athletes aged 9-13 will be in the Junior Development program. We encourage young athletes to participate in as many events as their schedule permits. It is very common for some young athletes to join thinking that they want to do only one event, but years later opt to specialize in a completely different event because their interests and capabilities have changed.
Our Junior Development athletes train from early April until mid/late July on Monday through Thursday evenings. Consult our Information Page for our current (or previous) practice schedule. Due to coach schedules, the practice schedule for current year is usually finalized in mid/late March at which time the practice times for specific events on the evenings of Monday through Thursday will be set. Athletes are encouraged to participate in as many practices as they wish to.
