U6 football is a perfect introduction to both the Beautiful Game and our family-orientated club.
Weve pulled together a few FAQs to give you a better idea of what to expect as part of both the registration and team formation process, as well as an outline of the season ahead.
Our Club Registrar Melissa is also our U6 Age Coordinator and is always happy to answer any questions you may have, but hopefully the below covers most things.
We look forward to seeing you down at The Bay!

U6 orientation session on Sunday 21 Feb from 9  11 am: 
This is for all boys and girls turning 5 or 6 in 2021 to come down and form a team with their friends - new or old.
We will have a parent orientation talk, and the kids will be grouped into teams of 5 or 6 (minimum 4) and will play mini games. For most kids this will be their first ever game of football and its a lot of fun!
We will have all-girl teams and mixed teams which can be all-boy or boys and girls together.
Our registration desk will also be open for ID sightings (proof of age and address), however we encourage you to register your kids online before coming down and email any documents to our registrar ahead of time as the queue can get rather long on U6 day!

What time do I need to arrive?
Please arrive by 8:45am as we will kick off at 9:00am sharp.

What should my child wear?
All kids will play a few short games, so shin-pads and boots are to be worn. Sneakers are okay if you dont have boots yet. Kids should also bring water.

What if it rains, its really smoky or hot on the day? 
We will be paying very close attention to the weather and air quality. If it is very hot, smoky, or raining, please keep an eye on our websiteandFacebook page for updates closer to time.

My child wants to form a team with his/her friends, how can we make sure this happens?
We group younger kids (U6-U7s) in teams with their mates. U6s play 4-a-side so 4 is the minimum number of players and we have a maximum of 6 players</description>
