Some exceptions may be made for those Primary School players deemed to potentially benefit from coaching with the High School & College players – this assessment will be at the discretion of the Program Coach(es).


 
Notes on grading

On the grading day for both programs, players will be assessed by the coaches and placed in their relevant coaching & playing groups for the duration of the roster. This process ensures players are receiving the most suitable coaching experience and therefore the best opportunity to develop and improve their skills. However, at the discretion of a coach, a player may be moved between groups if deemed necessary and beneficial for the player.
