Junior Mixed Grading Sessions: What You Need to Know

Grading for our U8 to U14 mixed teams kicks off on Monday 2nd February 2026 at Balcombe Heights Estate – Masonic Oval No 2 (Bottom Field).

All players in these age groups should complete the Grading Form to nominate their preferred session. We recommend attending both sessions where possible, but at least one is required.

Sessions run for one hour and include drills covering passing, dribbling and shooting, as well as game play scenarios. Coaches will assess players across a range of attributes, including first touch, ball control, striking, possession, recovery, attitude, sportsmanship and fitness.

Please arrive at the Canteen 15 minutes before your session starts to check in. Players will need boots, shin pads and a water bottle.

Note:

If your child has already been selected for a team, you do not need attend grading.
U8s to U15s Female grading information is available here.
U15s to U21s grading information will be communicated separately.
