Miniroos U10 - U12

MiniRoos is a national initiative delivered by Football Australia for children aged Under 6 to Under 12. The program uses small-sided football games, with rules and formats that evolve as players progress through the age groups.

At Ormeau FC, MiniRoos focuses on developing football skills, encouraging teamwork and making football an enjoyable experience for every player. The emphasis is on participation, confidence and development, helping young players build a love for the game.

Every team requires a coach, typically a parent or club volunteer. We encourage parents and community members to get involved and help create a positive football experience for our young players.

Typical responsibilities include:

• Organising half-time snacks, such as fruit.

• Liaising with other team managers regarding player availability and borrowing players in accordance with club policy.

Parents and Volunteers

Parents play an important role in the success of Ormeau FC, and we appreciate the support of our football community.

Training and guidance will be provided to managers and parents to help ensure these duties are completed safely and efficiently.
