Age Groups for 2023
An all girls competition is proposed to be offered in the following age groups
Under 10, Under 12, Under 14 and Under 17.
This is subject to the number of players that register and the number of teams in each age group. The competition will be altered to ensure a good number of teams to ensure a variety of competition during the season.
The all girls competition is offered by CCJSA in line with national governing body recommendations and guidelines for providing female specific playing opportunities that encourage greater participation and retention in the sport.
AJSC supports these initiatives with a policy that all girls registering with AJSC, who are eligible for these age groups, will be placed in all girls teams as first preference. If you desire your daughter to play in a mixed team please email registrar@ajsc.org.au with this preference and reasons for such a request. Ability to offer the preference of playing in a mixed team will be based on age, skill, development recommendations (from academies etc), availability of a position in a mixed team and impact on other club members of such a move.
