Youth (13 - 19 Years)
Youth teams are graded by Northern Regional Football (NRF) and offer varying levels of competition from community to elite.
All youth teams play on a Saturday or Sunday depending on the level of competition.
Youth teams are selected on the following criteria:
- The level of competition being appropriate to the players ability
- The best experience for the player
- Friendship groups (community competition only)
Where possible, West Auckland AFC will make every effort to accommodate all players to the level of competition they wish to play.
