Berwick Churches Soccer Club is proud of its inclusive Juniors program that is aimed at promoting the enjoyment of playing soccer, as well as the development of individual players skills within a team environment.
During the past season, BCSC had 500+ young people playing across 38 teams in the VCFA Junior competition. The club fields teams in all age groups from U8s through to U18s, including female-only teams in the U10s, U12s, U14s and U16s age groups.
Junior teams usually train once a week at a set time and day, with training days ranging from Monday–Thursday with times between 5pm and 7pm.
All junior games are played on Saturday mornings with home games at Grices Road Reserve, and away games at various locations around Melbourne and surrounding suburbs. We are always looking for volunteers to help out with our Junior program, from coaches to team managers, to canteen volunteers.
If you’re interested or if you require any more information on our Junior programs, please don’t hesitate to contact our Junior Coordinators, Georgie Davidge and Will Joy via e-mail – juniors@berwickcsc.org.au
Our Junior Development Program spans across our KickStart Program throughout our Juniors and Academy Programs, and is headed up by our Technical Director, Lamartine Fernandes.
Lama is an accredited, professional coach who has experience running junior programs and Academies throughout China, Thailand, India, Malaysia, the Philippines and now in Australia.
All junior coaches received free training through Lama, helping to equip them to be the best coach to our junior players that they possibly can. You will find Lama at Grices Road Reserve most nights of the week, mentoring and guiding our next generation.
