About the team
Which Year Group Should My Child Join?
The year group corresponds to the class they are in at the beginning of the season in each September. The Colts team is made up of both U17 and U18 players.
The table below shows the age-grade progression as new skills/laws are added to the game as players develop. Currently, girls can play in mixed teams up to U11.
In the current season (2022/23), the U16 side is combined with Paviors due to lower numbers at both clubs. The team plays as the 'North Notts Buccaneers'.
