Team Selections and Training

Attending both trials is preferred, however, we understand that with travel and other commitments, you may not be able to make both trials. We therefore ask people to attend at least 1 trial in the first stage of the trials process.

To assist our selectors, trials will consist of key technical assessments, match play and fitness. Please note along with the formal trials process, selectors will be present across the NSW State Championships and June Long Weekend Carnival to also assist with assessments and watching players compete over an extended carnival setting.

In the days following the second trial, we will look to select a broad squad of approximately 26-32 players to continue to Stage 2 of our selection process.

Please arrive 15 minutes prior to the start of the session to have your name marked off and receive your playing bib.

Please note the coaches and selectors have the ability to select a team between 16-18 players and the number of shadow players will generally be between 3-5 players. Shadow players are invited to train with the team up until the championships and have the ability to be called into the team should an injury or illness occur.

Please note: Registration will incur a $30 fee to assist with field hire for selection Trials.
