Terms of Reference for Underage Review
A group has been set up to review all aspects of our playing season from U8 to U18 with a focus on the following:
- Length of the playing season at all grades from U8 to U18 versus the national norm
- Assess the number of games provided in each code versus the national norm
- Assess the quality and competitiveness of games from U14 to U18 with a focus on grading
- Assess the adherence to national Go Games Policy and small-sided games from U8 to U12
- Assess the games programme for the 18-year-old player in the context of any rule changes and the impact it would have on underage games programmes.
The group will use forums, surveys and invite submissions from all clubs as part of the process.
