We are a community based club run by volunteers who share a passion for Soccer. Our club is based out of Docklands and we play at Ron Barassi Sr Park, the most awesome ground in Melbourne.
Open Trials and Season key dates
Soccer season in Victoria starts in late April with pre-season planned to start sometime in March. Practice is once a week on Thursdays and matches are on Sundays. Each week the games are Home (at our pitch) or Away (Somewhere else in Victoria, within a region - South, East , West or North). There are 18 games in a season and it finishes in September.
During
February we plan to run a few open trials and training sessions to give the kids and parents an opportunity to come see the club, meet the returning kids, coaches , committee and senior players and ask any questions about the program. These sessions are free of charge for registered participants. the first session was on
15 of February . The next session will be on 26 of February at 5:30pm
What will the program look like for 2026
Our Junior Program coordinator for 2026 season is Eduardo Sousa, a qualified Physical Education professional, and soccer coach with over 20 years experience coaching adults and kids in Australia and Brasil. Coach Ed is also the captain of last year Metros champion team and will play this year in our Masters team. Our coaches live and breath soccer and many also play for the club.
There's no minimum skill level and players of all abilities are very welcome. The age groups planned for the Football Victoria league this year are kids born between 2014 and 2020 ( if your child wants to play and are "just a little over or under" we can try to make it work ).
This year, for the first time , the club will offer a specialized program , focused on Ball skills, dribbling, 1 V 1 and short pitch play. The methodology is inspired on the "Joga Bonito " playing style , made famous by some of the greatest Brazilian players like Pele, Ronaldinho, Neymar and Ronaldo . This style aligns with our belief soccer must be fun and helps kids develop confidence , quick thinking and decision making skills. The program will likely run on Mondays, and will be open for ages 8 and above. We believe it’s a great option for players looking to get an extra session, for those outside of the age bracket and for those not interested in playing league games.
The exact teams by age are not yet known and will be finalized based on the number of kids who join. The training schedule , total fees are also not 100% known yet but we can give you an indication based on last years . We try to keep our fees as low as possible, specially when compared with some other clubs and are very proud to offer an awesome but fairly priced program.
