Dear Blackwood Football Club families,

The Blackwood Football Club would like to make the announcement that for Season 2021, the club committee has made the decision to field our sub junior teams (Under 7, Under 8, Under 9 and Under 10) to play in the SANFL Juniors competition. This is an excellent opportunity for the growth and development of our youngest players who are the future of our club!

Games in the SANFL Juniors competitions are anticipated to alternate with Friday night or a Sunday morning, this is subject to the league’s fixture release. The SANFL Junior Competition Calendar lists Round 1 as the weekend commencing 23rd April 2021.

Competitions in the SANFL Juniors are organised by geographical regions. Blackwood could expect teams in this age group to play against teams within the South to South Eastern Suburbs such as Glenunga, Unley, Mitcham, Goodwood and Colonel Light Gardens. This will be confirmed upon release of the fixture.

Training for our sub-junior teams will be held on Monday afternoons at the club. Training will commence at 4.45pm on the 29th of March 2021.

We would encourage you all to check out the SANFL Junior Competition rules and match conditions for more information which can be found here. If you have any further questions or enquiries, please feel free to send me an email here

Regards,

Simon Hughes

Junior Football Director
