WHYALLA WANDERERS SOCCER & SOCIAL CLUB

FOR IT'S A GRAND OLD TEAM TO PLAY FOR!

Junior Soccer

Whyalla Wanderers Soccer & Social Club proudly runs the largest junior soccer program in Whyalla, providing opportunities for children and young people from a wide range of cultural and social backgrounds to participate in the game in a positive, inclusive, and supportive environment.

Our junior program focuses on much more than football skills. We aim to help young players develop teamwork, confidence, coordination, discipline, and a lifelong enjoyment of sport, while ensuring sessions remain fun, safe, and age-appropriate. Wanderers is proud to have the most qualified and accredited junior coaches for our sport in town, supporting player development at every stage.

Whyalla Wanderers fields 11 junior teams across 7 age grades, competing in Football South Australia–administered competitions. We encourage and support junior players to progress through recognised FSA development and representative pathways, including training programs and holiday clinics held at our club grounds.
