INFORMATION SHEET - U8s to U14s

​Welcome to Concord Junior Soccer Club (CJSC)

​​

Thank you for registering for the 2026 winter season. Please read the following important information to understand what comes next.

​

​

Grading

​​

We run grading sessions to sort the children into teams of players with similar abilities to ensure challenging but competitive games against other clubs. If not already done so, please read the important information on how we form teams and start having the conversation with your child ahead of the grading sessions so that they successfully navigate the sessions.

​

Your child will need to attend the grading sessions. The Day/Time/Place will be posted on the club’s social media and website around the middle of January and grading will kick off in the first week of February.

 

Players already accepted into Division 1 teams do not need to attend grading, unless requested by their Coach.

​

 

Thinking about coaching or managing a team?

 

Please consider getting more involved with the sport your child loves. It can be so fun and rewarding, and they love having a family member involved. Don't worry, we’ll support you no matter what level of experience you have.

​

If you do decide to coach or manage:
 

  1. If you do not have a valid Working With Children Check, please complete the check ASAP via www.ocg.nsw.gov.au/child-safe-organisations/working-with-children-check and email a copy of the WWCC confirmation to mpio@concordsoccer.org.au. You will need a WWCC to register. Free for volunteers.
     

  2. Register yourself as a Coach/Manager via www.concordsoccer.org.au/registrations click on the U19+ tab to register as an adult.
     

  3. If you do not have any formal coaching qualification, or want a refresher, the Club will be hosting a training session run by Football Canterbury at Majors Bay Reserve Concord. Sign up details will be posted once dates are firm.

​

There will be a Coaches & Managers Information Night on Tuesday 3rd March (for U8s to U12s) and Thursday 5th March (U13s to seniors) where we get to meet you and discuss what needs to happen and how the Club will support you. You will receive a calendar invitation once we have announced the teams in late February.

​

​

Volunteering Opportunities

​

If you are unable to coach or manage, please do your best throughout the season to support those working for your children e.g. setting up or packing up the field or offer to help the coach or manager at training or game day. The Club also welcomes anyone wanting to help the Committee run game day at our home ground or to get involved with Game Leading mentoring.

​

​

Dribl App (Competition System)

 

We recommend you download the Dribl app onto your phone for the draw. This will also notify you when games are cancelled or moved. The first set of games do not usually appear until a week or two before the season commences.

​

​

Keep Updated

​

Please keep an eye on our social media (@ConcordJSC on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter) and club website (www.concordsoccer.org.au) for more information on start of season activities.

​​

​

Have a great season!

 

Cheers

Vicki Rhodes

Club Administrator
