Preseason training for youth players commences at the start of Term 1. Please fill in our 2025 Expression of Interest here if your child is interested in playing so that we can ensure you receive information with club updates for the 2025 season. Players will need to have paid a deposit to commence preseason training.
Preseason training for our senior teams usually commenced in January, but the Expression of Interest is still open.
