What Happens After Trials
Following the completion of trials, the Trial Leads and coaching staff work closely with the Club Technical Team to determine the make up of each team for the season ahead.
Outcomes for Players
• Successful players will receive a Letter of Offer outlining the result of their trial and next steps.
• Parents/guardians must accept the offer and pay the deposit by the due date.
If the offer is not accepted and the deposit is not paid on time, the position may be offered to another player.
• Unsuccessful players will be invited to submit an EOI for placement in an U9 – U12 Wallaby or Quokka or an U13 – U18 divisional team.
