About this event
Illawarra Stingrays are holding trials for their 2027 Girls Junior Development League squads at Lakelands Oval, Dapto, across three days in September 2026. Sunday 6 September — age-tiered: - U10: 9:00am - U11: 10:30am - U12: 12:00pm - U13: 1:30pm Tuesday 8 and Thursday 10 September — two combined sessions each evening: - U10 and U11: 5:00pm - U12 and U13: 6:30pm Register your interest through the club's online form before attending. The same form covers the club's JDL, Youth and senior squads, so make sure you select the right pathway and age group. These times were published on the club's Facebook page rather than its website, so confirm them with the club before you travel. No trial fee or 2027 season fee has been published.
Who it suits
Girls U10–U13 in the Illawarra aiming at the Junior Development League, Football NSW's development tier below Youth League. The Stingrays run Girls JDL through to NPL Women's, so there is a route through to senior football. Worth weighing against South Coast Flame, the other Illawarra girls pathway club, which is trialling on the same three days.
Before you register
- Confirm the times with the club before travelling. They were posted on Facebook and are not on the club's website.
- There are three separate days, not one: Sunday 6 September is age-tiered (U10 9:00am, U11 10:30am, U12 12:00pm, U13 1:30pm), while Tuesday 8 and Thursday 10 September each run U10–U11 at 5:00pm and U12–U13 at 6:30pm. Ask whether you are expected at all three.
- South Coast Flame is trialling its Girls JDL on the same three days at Ian McLennan Park, and the Sunday sessions overlap. If you are considering both clubs, you may need to choose or ask about alternatives.
- If you saw this announcement with an auto-generated headline saying "September 2027", that is wrong — the trials are September 2026, for the 2027 season.
- Submit the expression of interest before attending. The same form covers JDL, Youth and senior squads, so select the right pathway and age group.
- No trial fee or 2027 season fee is published. Ask what a JDL place costs before trialling.
- The club's girls pathway runs through Girls JDL to NPL Women's. If your daughter is U14 or older, ask which competition she would actually be playing in.
