Miniroos U7- U9

Fun, development & football fundamentals in a friendly environment

About MiniRoos 7-9

At Woden Valley Soccer Club, our U7 – U9 players participate in the Capital Football MiniRoos program. This stage is non-competitive — the emphasis is on enjoyment, skill development, building confidence, and learning to play as part of a team.

Players are placed into groups (rather than fixed teams) based on school / friendships where possible, to help them feel comfortable and supported as they begin their football journey.

*U7 Split Game: On match day, teams will split into two simultaneous 4v4 games. After halftime, some teams may switch fields to play different opponents. Teams should mix weekly to reduce lopsided results and support development.

These formats align with Football Australia’s MiniRoos guidelines and allow children to experience a fun, balanced introduction to match play before transitioning to larger formats in U10+.
