Glenorchy Knights Juniors
Glenorchy Knights caters for players in the Under 5 to Under 12 age groups. We are an inclusive club and accept junior players of all playing levels.
We compete in the Central Region Junior Football Association (CRJFA) roster during the regular season and have training sessions available during the off season.
For players U8 to U12, we offer the Knights Skills Program (KSP) which provides access to regular training sessions with professional and qualified coaches. The aim is to better prepare our players for youth competitions and senior football as they get older.
We seek to provide an environment where every player feels included, safe and excited to learn and grow and be part of our club community.
