Juniors Football
Welcome to Junior Football at Redbacks FC
Our junior teams (Under 9 to Under 16) provide the opportunity for your children to play football in a competitive and social atmosphere. We strive to ensure that the culture within the club promotes the Game of Football for the enjoyment of all participants.
Our goal is to raise standards in grassroots football, support the development and growth of all players, whilst recognising and rewarding your children for their commitment and achievements.
We prioritise child protection, quality coaching and implementation of the Respect programme.
Training takes place at our home ground of George Thornton Reserve (View Street).
Matches are played on Saturday mornings against other GHFA clubs. Our ground accommodates all age field formats.
