Frequently asked questions

Before choosing a programme.

Does every academy enquiry receive a trial?

The club first checks age, experience and current group capacity, then recommends the most suitable assessment route.

Can beginners join?

Yes. Community and foundation programmes include suitable starting options for new players.

Are matches guaranteed?

Selection depends on attendance, readiness, squad needs and competition rules.

Can players change programmes?

Coaches review development and may recommend movement between groups when appropriate.
