Football Kit (Uniforms)

All players at the club require Belnorth socks, shorts, shin pads and soccer boots.

Belnorth socks, shorts, and other gear will be available at Kaleen on selected dates/times, generally Saturday morning on junior game day. For further details, check out our Club Shop page.

The numbered playing jerseys are owned and maintained by Belnorth. They are distributed to team management after team selections have taken place.

Team placements

Players in the Miniroos U5 to U9 ages do not take part in grading – these teams are allocated by the registrars. For any new players to the club, we will do our best to put them into a team that they request to play in, but only if there is a vacant position. We have a strict policy of having a maximum of seven players in each team for the U5 to U7s and a maximum of ten players for the U8s and U9s. We will not displace existing team members to make way for special requests.

Your child stays in the same team from U5 to U9 unless you make a specific request to change teams and only if alternative vacant positions are available.

Any requests for these age groups can be sent to your relevant registrar, linked below.

Teams will be announced in early April after registrations close. All players will be contacted by their respective coaches/managers.

The coach and manager are responsible for contacting each of their team members to inform them of what is expected of them during the season, including training times (if they have them – generally, only U7s and above will have a formal training session during the week for about an hour – depending on coach and parents).
