Title: Junior footy year 8s in September.
Post by: adamtherover on May 09, 2021, 04:41:52 pm
Hi, if anyone has any lads or lasses that wants a new challenge, SprotBorough crusaders current u12s are recruiting for the increase to 11 a side in September.  They are currently in division 2 and would love a pacey striker and a tough tackling midfielder, (wouldn't we all). All positions bar keeper available tho, They train on a thurs nite at anchorage Lane fields and play on a Sunday morn.  It's a good set up with friendly staff and coaches. Anyone interested, send me a Pm, and I'll arrange a trial. Thanks.

U12s play 11-a-side?

It's not on a full size pitch is it?

they currently are 9 a side on the smaller pitches/goals. In September, when they are classed as u13s, they will move to 11 a side and full side pitches. Which will be fun...

Bit suprised to read that. I'd have thought 9-a-side on smaller pitches would be better for their development.

It's not full size pitch. 100x 60 yards but can go down to 90x50 at U13s and 14s.
Under 12s is 80x50.

that's interesting, as they go to 11 a side we just assumed they would be on the mens pitches?,  so what size goals do they use?, still the ones from 9 aside?
