Football Trials
We will hold trials in September to select squads for football. Everyone who is selected will then be asked to buy a DBS football kit. These can be ordered from Kukri (see DBS kits page)
Please note that players must bring a hat and water to all trials as the trials will be played outside.
Squad numbers are limited to around 10 for primary, there are a few reasons for this:
-We want to ensure that students get wear out of the kit that they buy
-Primary teams usually only play around 5 matches so we want to ensure that we are able to give each player game time at fixtures. Games are generally quite short, so this can be tricky if you have a lot of players.
-We follow the DASSA leagues, which only allow us to take a squad of 10 to matches. The matches are 6 or 7 aside, depending on age.
For those not selected for the squad, we will offer recreational football where students can go along to improve their skills and techniques. If the chance arises, we will try to find a local school to play some recreational matches against.
