Club Membership
St Ives Australian Football Club is always keen to attract new members. Our award winning Auskick program and under-age competition grades cater for players who, in that year, will turn 5 to 16 years of age. In 2006 St Ives was awarded the Best Auskick program for the Northshore region and was also awarded the prestigious honour of the Best Northshore Club. In 2007 St Ives was awarded the honour of the best junior program (Auskick - Under 12) in the Sydney North Junior competition.
Participation and development are the key words in the management of our teams. This, and the strong support of the AFL Greater Sydney Juniors - Sydney North, the body under which we compete, ensures our players are afforded equal opportunity to train and play our great game. This is a fundamental aspect of our Club's philosophy. In the junior grades (u9-u12) equal participation is mandatory. In the youth groups (u13-u16) there is a focus on development of skills. In the youth groups there is also a high focus on safety to ensure boys who are not physically developed are not exposed to over aggressive players in opposing teams.
All our coaches are accredited, and all junior age groups operate under modified rules to maximise the safety and fun aspects of junior AFL. In 2008 our Club is looking to attract as many new players as possible. All new Junior and Youth players in 2008 will receive our St Ives AFL sports bag, a great addition to our Club uniform, further emphasising the very professional image we seek to display, both on and off the field. Our Auskick players will receive the official AFL Auskick pack.
