**To play Under 18’s football the player must be 15 years old on or before 31st August
Players who are aged under 15 at 31st August are also not permitted to play in a match where any other player is older or younger by two years or more than that person.
Games are played locally at weekends and may include regular tournaments throughout the season. The focus in this phase is on building technical skills, game understanding, tactical awareness and healthy competition. Selection for the match squad may be based on a mixture of competency, fitness, availability and conduct.
