Grading

Early in the year, Belsouth runs grading sessions for all registered players from U10 through to U18.  The purpose of grading is to assist Belsouth in selecting teams for the upcoming season. 

Players who do not attend grading sessions will generally be placed in a lower division for their age group. However, circumstances may arise where players are unable to attend grading sessions due to sickness, or being away, etc. In these instances, the player must contact the via email (belsouthfc.grading@gmail.com) prior to gradings to inform them that they will not be able to attend.
