Who plays in the Premier Invitational?
Last year we were excited to welcome teams from the United States, New Zealand and from all over Australia. While we may not get so many from far away, it still promises to be a wonderful event!
What about good sportsmanship?
We want this to be a fabulous three days for all the kids and parents involved and to create happy memories for years to come. We understand that everyone wants to win but please talk to your players and ask them to play fair and be kind. Same goes for the parents. We understand you want your kid’s team to win but please be courteous to everyone else involved; the players, the coaches, the referees and the other parents. Please encourage your children in a positive manner. If you feel anyone has ignored these rules, come and see one of the staff or volunteers.

Teams will be split into 4 groups in each age category. Each group will have 4 teams. The two top teams in each group will then be entered into the Premier Group and the bottom two teams will be entered into the Championship Group.
