Junior representative is filled with a load of fun and competitive touch footy played against affiliates from across the state.
Players will be coached by some of our best Coaches while forming terrific friendships across our Redlands Touch community. Most importantly, each player will experience growth in their fitness, skill level and overall development.
As this is representative level competition, players MUST be able to commit to attending regular training sessions and all carnivals. While we focus on building a positive and fun team environment centred around our players, team training and carnival experience is essential to success and therefore attendance is compulsory.
Our junior representative season will culminate with 270+ teams from across Queensland travelling to Rockhampton for the Junior State Cup on July 8 to 10, 2027.
Player Selection Trial Dates and Times
Players wanting to wear the red, white and green colours to represent Redlands must attend the player selection trials.
Trial dates will be announced here by early December 2026, with trials taking place in late January or early February 2027.
When attending the selection trials, players are to wear the same numbered playing shirt to both trials. Please do not wear any representative playing gear (shirts, shorts, socks, hats), for example Redlands representative uniforms, metropolitan east uniforms, Sharks uniforms or state uniforms. Players arriving at trials wearing any representative garments will be directed to change.
Please bring two water bottles, sunscreen and a hat to trials.
One Parent Volunteer Per Player – Compulsory
Since our inception in 1978, Redlands Touch Association has been not for profit and volunteer led.
Our success will continue with your support. One parent per junior representative player will be required to volunteer at an event. You will be working alongside our accomplished volunteer team and be provided with all of the support required to enjoy your role.
Volunteering involves a small amount of time assisting on the barbeque, in the canteen or marshalling at the carpark during one of our two major events – our Redlands Arthur Davis Cup junior representative carnival or the Queensland Primary All Schools Championships.
Player Levy and Carnival Fees
The Redlands Touch junior representative player levy will be approximately $545 and includes all registration fees associated with the three SQBD affiliate carnivals at Gold Coast, Palm Beach and Redlands.
Upon teams being announced in February, an immediate non-refundable deposit of $100 is required to confirm player acceptance. The $445 balance of the player levy must be paid by direct bank transfer (not cash) and will be due in early March.
UNIFORM: If your player requires a new uniform, the kit will be available for approximately $95.
ADDITIONAL CARNIVALS: Player registration fees to attend other carnivals such as the Toowoomba Twisters Cup are approximately $35. Attendance at these carnivals will be at the direction of each team coach.
JUNIOR STATE CUP: The player registration fee for junior state cup is payable to Queensland Touch Football and will be approximately $105 with payment due in May.
In 2027, our junior representative players will be supported by a record number of Australian and Queensland level touch football representatives.
One Club, One Team.
