Training & Development

All players U12 and younger participate in the KANO skills training program once per week.

Training for U13 to U17 teams are run by club coaches, usually twice per week.

Training times for 2025 will be available here in the new year.

Kano Football

Kano Football (Formerly T-3 Australia) is an organisation that helps community clubs assist children to develop their football games with the support of their parents and club coaches. Please visit their website for more information kano-football.com.au.

Club Coaches

All club coaches are volunteers and are required to have a valid “Working with Children Check”. The club provides coaches with development and support to ensure they have the basic skills required to effectively coach our players.

If you are interested in coaching a team, please reach out by completing the general Inquiry Form.

Game Structure

Different grades play different game structures, with the size of the field, the number of players, and ball size progressively changing as children develop through the grades (refer to table below).

Note: U7s do not participate in home and away matches against other clubs. They play intraclub matches at JJ Holland Park on Saturday mornings.

The club encourages and pays junior players to referee Miniroos matches. U12 and above has FV appointed refs but parent volunteers may be needed from time to time.
