Small Sides Games (SSG) football covers U10s – U11s for boys and girls.

Competitive football covers U12s-U18s for boys and U12s-U16s for girls (U18 girls are run by the Women’s League).

Games are played against other soccer clubs at our home grounds of Kaleen & Giralang and at other soccer grounds within the ACT region.

Belnorth is an all volunteer club and draws its coaches and managers from within the parents involved in the club, if you are able to help please email your registrar. All current coaches and managers will be emailed by the end of January.

Please ensure that you sign up for the newsletter at the top left of this page to stay in touch with all the information and weekly newsletters that are published during the actual playing season.

Uniforms – All players at the club require Belnorth socks and shorts, which can be purchased from Rebel Sport at Westfield Belconnen. Make sure that while you are there you sign up for the Season Pass card and link the card to Belnorth. Our club then gets 5% of all sales made by participants which helps keep fees down by allowing us to purchase equipment for the club. Shin pads and soccer boots of any brand and colour will also be required.

The numbered playing shirts are owned and maintained by Belnorth. They are distributed to team management after team selections have taken place. It is club policy that these shirt sets are returned to the coach or manager after each game so that the sets can be maintained and so that shirts don't go missing. Team management will normally arrange a washing roster.

Team Placements - All players in the U10s and up will need to take part in grading which starts in late February and continues for 3 weeks, or as needed. Please check the calendar for the times of your particular age group.

After grading is complete we endeavour to have team lists announced and to coaches late March. Lists will also appear on the website at this time.

Players will not be allocated to a team unless they are fully registered with Belnorth and have finalised payment, or have a payment plan in place with the treasurer.

The coach and/or manager are responsible for contacting each of their team members to inform them of what is expected of them during the season, including training times.

Game times – Game draws for these age groups will are available from the Capital Football web site close to the start of the season. This is where you find out where and when your team is playing. Please check back on a weekly basis to ensure you have the latest copy as things do change.

Season start & finish - The season usually starts the first or second week in May and will finish in early September.
