Train-On Squad Trials & Grading for 2020
Springwood United FC’s trials for Train On Squads (TOS) will commence on Saturday 30th November after the conclusion of Football NSW’s Representative Trial Window.
SUFC will hold trial sessions as per the attached calendar to identify TOS’s for all 2020 competition age groups, (U12’s to U17’s). The size of the TOS may vary between age groups.
Players are invited to attend sessions where they will be assessed for suitability for inclusion in a TOS that will ultimately form SUFC’s Div 1 or Div 2 teams in 2020.
Under 11’s Mixed
Parents of U11 players in 2020 are reminded that grading for all U11 teams will commence in the first week of February 2020. There will be no Train On Squads for this age group prior to February’s grading window.
Under 12 Mixed
A TOS of up to 18 players will be chosen from those attending trials with a 14 player Division 1 team being chosen from that group.
Under 13, 14 & 16 Boy’s
A TOS of up to 24 players per age group will be chosen from those attending trials with a 14 player Division 1 team being selected from that group.
Under 15 & U17 Boy’s
A TOS will be formed by those attending trials and depending on player numbers, team selections and grading may be suspended for this age group until the February grading window in 2020. A 14 player Division 1 team will be chosen with remaining players forming a second team with SUFC nominating a suitable division for 2020. Please note ALL U15 & U17 players are welcome to attend these sessions whether they intend to trial for Division 1 teams or not.
Train-On Squad sessions are open to all players of respective age groups. These sessions are a great opportunity for players to develop their skills in the offseason with the understanding that attendance alone at these sessions does not guarantee selection into any particular team or division. Players not selected for Division 1 teams will be assessed and placed into additional teams within the age groups, Div 2, 3, 4, etc.
Can’t Make the Trials?
***Players wanting to play in Division 1 teams who cannot attend these sessions should email the email and advise the grading coordinator of the player who would like to be considered for Division 1 selection ***
Check out the calendars for both Train-On Squad and Grading sessions. Sessions times may be postponed, pushed back or canceled if we experience extreme weather conditions. Please monitor clubs' Facebook page and website for information as we move closer to the dates.
