ABOUT:
Here at Ranui Swanson FC we align with NZ Football's award-winning 'Whole of Football' programme. This is a grassroots programme designed to develop young players and help them to learn the skills they need to enjoy the game. More information can be found on the New Zealand Football website.
GRADES & TEAMS:
The "Whole of the Football" programme comprises of grades 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. After 8th grade, players move on to Junior Football.
TEAMS & COACHES:
Teams are made up of about 6-8 players. Teams are usually made up of players based on their age, teams are pretty flexible to start to ensure that everyone is happy and keen to play ball every Friday!
Can you help coach? Here at RSFC we value our coaches & the time they put into our teams.
