* Note: Children must have reached 5 years before they can be registered.  They can still start nippers after the season commences, as soon as they turn 5.  This is a national standard. Email us to discuss options for 4 year-olds who will turn 5 during the season.
A child may join a club when they turn five years of age. No SLSC is to accept membership of a child until they have reached the age of five years to comply with insurance requirements. A child who turns five after the 30th of September of that season can join for the remainder of the season, but will also stay in the U/6 for the following season according to SLSNSW.
