Girls Born 2008-11

Players can attend these sessions with the aim of playing in an U13/14/16 Girls Development team during 2024.  The Development teams play their weekly games on Saturday mornings and are a stepping stone towards playing in an Academy team.  Players in the Development teams may be more motivated - and will be committed to train 2x weekly during the main season (terms 2 & 3). 

As an alternative other players may choose to play alongside friends in a social team

• Wednesday 14 February 5:25-6:25pm

Register to Attend

To register to attend Player Identification sessions (this is free and different to club registration for the season) for a Development Team, click on the button below and then the correct pathway (Girls or Mixed). It would be helpful with planning sessions if players attending could register at least 24 hours before.

Additional information 

• Only players who have registered for Western Springs AFC for 2024 may be selected for a team. Register here and follow steps - registrations open during early February.
• Players whose priority is to play with friends (or stay in the same teams as in 2023) should not attend these sessions but instead will be placed in teams by their grade coordinator once club registrations close. Players can share these preferences when registering for the 2024 season.

Day of session

• Players should arrive 15 minutes before it starts to register their arrival and be allocated a bib
