Friday Night Football

Where Badgers are born...

Our open session training for players from ages 4-13 takes place on Friday Evenings. This is where we find our talented young players, and anyone aspiring to become a Young Badger, should come along and have some fun getting to know our players and coaches. As a club we don't do "trials" for young players, why would we want to put them through the sense of rejection that comes from not getting a place after getting their hopes up for a few weeks of training? Instead we watch them whilst they're having fun playing football with their friends on a Friday. If we see a player we like that shows promise, and a space is available on a team, then we will speak to their parent and ask if they'd like to come along to team training and go from there.
