SCHOOL SPORT VICTORIA 15 YEARS & UNDER BOYS
AUSTRALIAN FOOTBALL REGISTRATIONS NOW OPEN
Registrations to trial for School Sport Victoria’s 15 Years & Under Boys Australian
Football Registrations are now open. Registration remain open to 23 March 2016.
Trials for non TAC development squad players begin on 30 March, then for TAC
Development Squad members the following week. A trial will also be offered in
Mooroopna this year on 6 April for TAC Development Squad members from the
northern and central areas of Victoria. We hope this gives players from these areas a
better opportunity to trial rather than travelling to Melbourne.
If anyone needs more information on the SSV team then please visit the SSV website at
https://www.ssv.vic.edu.au/TeamVic/Pages/AustralianFootball.aspx#item2. There is a
link from that page to details on the trial process and the online registration system.
