Cubs (U6/U7)

Cubs is an in-house program for players turning 6 or 7 during 2026. The focus for this age group is on the development of ball skills, team building, game knowledge and, most importantly, having fun!

Teams have a 30-minute training session, followed by a 15-minute break, then a 30-minute game (2 x 15-minute halves) against another Cubs team. All sessions are held at Usher Park on Saturday mornings, commencing at 8.30am.

The 2026 season for Cubs will commence after the Easter school holidays and runs until the week before the September school holidays (no games during June school holidays or long weekends).

This age group is all about development, learning and FUN so scores are not kept and no ladders are published.

Each team requires a coach who is typically a parent of one of the players. If you are interested in coaching a team, please contact the club! All Cubs coaches are encouraged to complete the free MiniRoos Certificate. Coaches are expected to attend a monthly coach's meeting where ongoing coaching development and resources will be provided by SCFC's Head Coach and representatives from Centre of Development.

Each team requires a manager, typically a parent, to assist with team logistics. The manager is responsible for things like:

Parents are responsible for ensuring all 3 steps of the registration process are complete and all payments are made as required, making sure their child is at training and games on time and are dressed in accordance with club requirements.

Parents are encouraged to regularly check Creeks Facebook page for any relevant information.

Parents will also be listed on parent rosters for their child's team, usually for washing of jerseys and providing fruit breaks.
