We cater to boys and girls aged 5 to 18 (Under 6 - Under 12 mixed, Under 13 - 18 segregated competitions), as well as fielding Senior (18+ years) and Masters (35+ years) teams for both men and women.

All our volunteers are registered with NRL Victoria, and hold Working With Children Checks. We are a Level 3 accredited Good Sports Club.

All players will require football boots and a mouthguard. It is also Club policy that junior grades wear protective headgear.
