MiniRoos is a national initiative run by Football Australia (FFA) for children aged Under 6 to Under 12's. It focuses on small-sided football games with rules that evolve as players progress through the age groups.
The emphasis is on skill development, teamwork, and enjoyment, with no scores or league tables recorded, allowing each week to be a fun, positive, and inclusive experience for all participants.

Each MiniRoos team requires a coach, usually a parent volunteer.
If you are interested in coaching, please contact the club — all coaching qualifications are covered by Ormeau FC, and support is provided through our Junior Coach Coordinator, Cameron Bunney.
We also partner with X-Cel Academy to deliver ongoing coach development, workshops, and resources throughout the season.
All coaches must:
Register through Squadi
Hold a valid Blue Card (Working with Children Check)
Each team also needs a manager to assist with team communication and logistics, allowing the coach to focus on training and match preparation.
Managers coordinate game-day communication, assist with team organisation, and help manage any match-day issues.
The club provides training and ongoing support for managers.
All managers must also:
Register through Squadi
Hold a valid Blue Card (Working with Children Check)
If you’re interested in being a team manager, please contact the club or call 0450 112 633.
We ask that parents assist with setting up and packing down fields during home games.
A roster will be shared each week via the club’s Facebook page outlining which teams are responsible.
Training will be provided to ensure this process runs smoothly.
If you have any questions about MiniRoos, registration, or volunteering, please contact us via email at admin@ormeaufc.com or call 0450 112 633.
