What age group will my child be eligible for?
To make it simple which ever age group you child played in in the 2010winter season is the age group the will play for at the AFS. For example, if you child played Under 14's for their winter club, they will be eligible to player Under 14's in the AFS Summer Program. This is because this year the program finishes before the end of the year.
