2025 Football Boys
Expressions of Interest are open for Y8 Boys.
Y7 - please watch the daily notices for your expression of interest form and trial dates.
Y8 Boys Football trials begin next week in order to select a Y8 Boys team to represent Northcross at the North Harbour 9 aside Tournament. Generally one team is selected for each year group but occasionally organisers will allow the school to enter a 2nd team. If a team wins the NH tournament players will get to play in the Auckland Champions Tournament later in the year.
Before your child commits to this sport please read the very important information below.
If you have any questions or require additional information about Boys Football, please email our Sports Department.

Selection process
We go through a very thorough selection process to finalise our teams and players will be placed in a team that our selectors have determined best suits their ability and experience. While inevitably there will be some movement of players, both up and down teams, it is important to remember that this movement can be a result of the following factors:
- New players who didn’t play last year can also create movement for other players, especially if they are placed in a higher team, resulting in other players moving down to a lower team.
- Individual development and growth over the summer months. If individual players have put in an extra effort and completed additional training over the holiday, this can definitely show during trials, resulting in higher performance on the court and some movement between teams.
We understand that some students will have questions regarding the trial process and eventually the team selection – if your child does, please ask them to see Anna in the sports office.
As per our Sports Selection Policy, no correspondence regarding team selection will be entered into. If you wish to view it, please download the document at the bottom of this page.
