Under-8:
The U8 category is played in a festival format, where there are modified rules. There is no competition and all the players are welcomed every week to engage in fun activities apart from Football.

First Sunday the kids were getting their arms and cheeks painted with tattoos and the next Sunday was an ice cream treat for all to beat the heat.
