MiniRoos.
Weāre your Family Club.
MiniRoos is designed for kids of all abilities, aged 4 ā 11 years. The nation-wide initiative uses short, game-based sessions to introduce the sport of football to newcomers in an inclusive way. It focuses on learning new skills, being active, making life-long friends and, potentially, unearthing the next generation of Subway Socceroos or CommBank Matildas.
Training.
We train on Wednesday nights, 5:00 pm till 6:00 pm at Jelbart Park, Nowland Avenue Lavington.
