Term 2 Season

The club’s grassroots season occurs every Sunday during term 2, offering mixed grades from U5 till U15, and girls-only football for U6 till U12.
Training starts in March, with the ten-game season running from April till June.
U5-U8 - the younger ages play inhouse football every Sunday morning at Kelly’s Flat. This means young players don’t need to leave Wānaka to enjoy their football.
U9-U15 - Wānaka teams play against Queenstown, Cromwell and Alexandra, with all teams travelling to one central location weekly. Approximately five of the ten games are played in Wānaka.

Term 3 Futsal and Street Football

The term 3 grassroots program sees U6-U9 players enjoying futsal, while U10-13 players play street football on the hockey turf. Both programs have a ‘let them play’ philosophy that is designed to be fun, engaging and game-based. Players are organised into teams on the day, and have a series of small-sided games
