2024 SPRING GRADES
Over 35s & 45s
The introduction of the O35s aged division to our competition has grown frm 7 teams to now 12 teams. With the age of players stemming from 35 yo to over 50s, and with feedback from enthusiastic players, the club is interested in offering an O45s division for the 2024 Spring division. This will allow the ‘older O35s’ teams to play in a similarly skilled division.
The divisions however, will be proceed depending on team applications.
However, if we do not have sufficient interest in the O45s division (minimum 6 teams required), and dependant on applications, then the club will consider splitting the division into Div 1 & Div 2.
Touch Football is also a great way to meet new people that are interested in touch football.
