1. The Plan
Division One grading to take place for age groups from U13s to U18s via trials. The purpose of this approach is to ensure we create opportunity and a pathway for players (both boys and girls) to aspire to. From a Club perspective, it is important to grow and develop our younger players to create a talent pool from which senior squads can be replenished from year on year and into the future.
2. Rationale
2.1. Whilst we are a large and inclusive Club with hundreds of teams of varying
ages and abilities wearing the Red and Black, it is important that we create and maintain a pathway for talented players who may be aspirational and have the ability to play in a Kolts Premier League in the future.
2.2. Potential is only a starting block and development and incremental growth from a young age is vital if we are to nourish football talent at the Kolts, not only for grassroots representation (Kolts Premier League) but also for those with aspirations beyond the Club (State, National).
2.3. The Club is rightly proud of how many senior players have come through the ranks from the youth teams and we want to continue and improve that organic growth.
