This Indoor Season(2025/2026) the U11 (2015,2016) program will be mixed gender groups.
Players are in the Learn to Train stage. While still emphasizing fun, players will continue to learn the value of communication, teamwork and problem solving. Individual skill development will continue to be a priority in training and players are encouraged to continue to experiment with the game.
The Grassroots Coordinator will support the JR Coaches, and Parent Coach Volunteers by providing training activities to ensure that all players are being provided the same opportunities to develop and enjoy the game, while following Long Term Player Development.
Extra training is available through our Fort St John Northern Strikers program. This is a separate and additional registration.
The season session dates are from October to February 2026.
