OUR JUNIOR FOOTBALL PROGRAM

At Drysdale we are focussed on developing young footballers to become the best that they can be, both on the field and off the field. 
 

The Drysdale Football Club fields teams in the Geelong Junior Football League in age groups from U9 to U18. We currently cater for over 300 boys and girls in these sections plus 150 in Auskick. 

OUR AIM IS TO:    
    

• Teach and develop basic Australian Football skills.

• Promote healthy lifestyle choices including exercise & nutrition.

• Promote the benefits of participating in a community activity.

• Develop the potential of junior players to participate in, and contribute to, all aspects of the club both on-field and off-field.

• Promote appreciation of, and foster increased respect for, the role of the umpire, coaches, officials and volunteers.

• Promote encouragement and respect of all team members and opposition players.

• Increase parent, guardian and player’s “ownership” of providing a quality sporting environment.

• Develop and promote, to both players and parents, the importance of setting a positive example and good social behaviours in junior sport.
