Building Skills & Confidence

Youth Footy at Tweed Coast

Youth Footy is the next step up from non-competitive juniors – and is for all Boys & Girls aged 12 – 18! 

Where Competition Begins

Youth adds the competitive game elements of AFL football, whilst still focusing on core values such as fun, involvement, and skill development for all players.

How Youth Competition Works

Competitive elements added for increasingly competitive Youth matches include the addition of a competition model for play. Field size, match-length, and the number of players per team will also increase as age groups go up. Tweed Coast enter teams in both the mixed and girls competition.

Tweed Coast Tigers are committed to being a genuine community club which understands that despite the competitive environment of Youth football, every player belongs at our community footy club. Age groups will all play together with an age group head coach who supports all players to contribute and feel connected to their entire group. Teams will be placed in divisions so all players can play at their level will allows them to engage fully with AFL.
