    Aim

    • Fun skillwork that grows game knowledge and confidence.
    • Replaces U14 rep programme to benefit more than just a typically narrow selection of 12-24 players with 2 coaches max per team.
    • All-inclusive approach means no limits. Room for upwards of 70 players, at least 8 coaches plus managers and umpires to take part.
    • Removes pressure associated with trials. Anyone can sign-up - no one misses out!

    • Three opportunities for game play.
    • Attend all 6 dates to gain maximum benefit.

    Format

    • First week: skillwork and tactics in preparation for Centre Game Day. Players placed randomly across even teams. 
    • After Centre Game Day: players potentially graded into tiered age group teams to ensure maximum participation, enjoyment and engagement then complete at a Festival game day.
    • After Festival Game Day #1: players complete one more skill session working in their designated team in preparation for a final Festival Game Day #2.

    Coach, Manager & Umpire opportunity
