CORE VALUES

ENJOYMENT

Our players will play with a smile on their face, our coaches will guide in a positive and enthusiastic manner, and our club parents will praise the effort of our players within our club program.

EDUCATION

We challenge our players to improve their skills and game understanding at and away from practice, our coaches to be lifelong learners of the game, and our club parents to encourage our players to be responsible for their own learning.

COMMITMENT

We encourage our players to give 100% in training, games and everything they do. Our coaches will reinforce the importance of resilience and remind players that development is not linear, and our club parents support our players to believe in themselves, have dedication, pride and never quit!

OWNERSHIP

Our players attend all training sessions and games fully prepared and ahead of time, our coaches will maintain standards relating to players health, fitness, kit and equipment, and our club parents give players ownership to prepare their own kit bag.

INTEGRITY

We expect our players to exemplify and demonstrate sportsmanship and class at all times. Our coaches will reinforce respecting officials and opposition teams, and our club parents aim to support the development of ALL players as well as their own child, through a positive sideline.

CHARACTER

Our players will win with humility and lose with dignity! Our coaches support our players when they are struggling and congratulate and encourage them when they are excelling, and our club parents will reinforce commitment and trying your best.
