14.3.2.4. Changes To Five-Year-Olds Joining

A child may join a SLSC as soon as he/she turns 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 reaches five years of age after 30th September may join Nippers at that time for the remainder of the season; however, this child will be required to stay in the U6 Nippers age group again the following season. It is the SLSC’s responsibility to explain this to the parents of the child.
