Junior Divisions – Player Eligibility & Team Guidelines

To participate in the QBVT 2026/27 season, players must meet the following age requirements:

U15 Division: Players must be born in 2013 or later.
U17 Division: Players must be born in 2011 or later.

Team Registration

U15 Teams may register as 2-, 3-, or 4-a-side, provided all players are eligible for U15 (born in 2013 or later).
U17 Teams must register as 2-a-side only if any player is not eligible for U15 (i.e. born in 2011 or 2012).

Dual Division Entry

At tournaments where Junior and Senior divisions start on different days, eligible junior players may choose to enter both junior and senior divisions. However, players who enter both will be ineligible to progress beyond pool play in the Senior division to prioritise Junior division commitments.

Junior Rankings & Points

Junior seeding follows the same process as Senior divisions, based on a team’s best three results within the past 365 days.
Points are not transferable between divisions (e.g. U17 points cannot be used in U15 or Senior divisions).
