Juniors
Developing our Juniors on and off the pitch is our core focus
While every club has to strive to compete and succeed on the pitch, Watsonia’s key focus is on the development of players on and off the field; watching the juniors develop as a team and progress into the seniors to learn from one another.
Senior mens

Since 2011 Watsonia Heights has grown from a club that only fielded 11 junior teams and 3 senior teams to now be the biggest sporting club in the Banyule area. We have the largest playing base of any other club of any code. We have the largest number of female players of any club in Banyule area and the largest mixture of girls to boys ratio in the state. We run roughly double the state average.
We are now proud to field 21 Junior teams, 2 women’s and 4 men’s senior teams. Junior numbers are anticipated to be around 400 for 2020 and 500 soon after.

JUNIORS: EDUCATION IS KEY
DEVELOPING PLAYERS ON AND OFF THE FIELD
Currently fielding 21 Junior Teams, WHFC is proud to have a focus on developing talented football players but also educating our kids off the field.
Our Technical Directors are experienced along with our our Coaches being qualified, allowing our Juniors to have the best chance of expanding their talents whether it’s in football as a player or themselves becoming coaches in our MiniRoos Program or Referees.
2019 saw the creation of the Watsonia Heights Cultural Exchange Program for our U13 and U14 kids. In our first year, WHFC went to Abruzzo located in Italy.
Each year kids at WHFC will have the ability to participate in the Cultural Exchange Program and travel to another country to live like professional football players and be introduced to another culture’s traditions, history, beliefs and etiquette whilst allowing the kids to experience a unique opportunity
We believe that education is the key to success, and the Cultural Exchange Program is just one of the many ways we have introduced education to the WHFC community.
