Representative Football Trials

MLC School offers talented footballers the opportunity to participate in the Representative Football Program.

The program runs over three terms, concluding at the end of Term 3.                                                                                    

Students who nominate to trial must commit to all three terms.                                                                                     

As members of the representative teams, athletes will be entered into the following competitions:           
Representative Team (Open Age): CIS Cup: March 2025 – June 2025 (Weekday Competition)
Academy Team (15 and under): Bill Turner Trophy: March 2025 – June 2025 (Weekday Competition)
IGSA Football Competition: Term 2 and Term 3, 2025 (Saturday Competition)

Two teams will be selected at trials. An Opens team and a 15 and under team (for students who turn 15 and under in 2025). It is possible that a 15 and under footballer can be selected into the Opens team. In this case, they will also be required to play in the Bill Turner Cup games.

Athletes should be experienced footballers playing at a Division 1 or Representative level.
