FORMAT FOR PLAYERS

MiniRoos Teams play small sided games in a non-competitive structure.  All "MinisRoos" are placed in teams with their friends; generally according to the school they attend. They are encouraged to have fun in a non-competitive environment. This is encouraged through parents, coaches and managers. The entire GHFA area is broken into zones to reduce the amount of travelling involved at the younger age groups.  Matches are played at various times on Saturday mornings. Under 6 and 7 play 4 a side with usually 2 reserves on a pitch 20 x 30m. Under 8  and 9 play 7 a side with a goal keeper  on a pitch 35 x 45m. Under 10 and under 11 play in teams of 9 a side with a maximum of 3 reserves on a ¾ size field with a goalkeeper. Under 9-11 teams are graded so players of similar ability play against each other.

Under 12 to Under 16, play in teams of 11 players on a full sized field. Players in the junior competitive age groups are individually graded (by the Club?s grading committee) so they are, where possible, playing with and against players of similar ability. Matches are played at various times on Saturday.

 These competitions are played under normal FIFA rules.  This provides the opportunity for all "senior" players to play at different levels of ability as they grow with Roselea. It includes the over 35, over 45 competitions.

This competition is played with all the rules of the North West Sydney Women?s Football. Under 7 to Under 11 play non-competitive MiniRoos in the same format as above. Under 12 to All Age and over 35 play competitive 11-a-side football against other clubs on a full-size field. Matches are played on Sundays.
