GENERAL COMMENTS

Hotspurs is the biggest club in Soccer Albury –Wodonga. We are the only club to field a team in every age group. We still have many players wishing to play with us and it difficult to turn players away. This reflects great credit to the coaches and managers who organize our players. The result is all our teams have capacity numbers (except the nines) and this requires players and parents to have patience with those running our teams. Hotspurs is an equal opportunity club and all players are expected to get sufficient playing time. This may mean some teams using rosters or other methods to give every players ample opportunity.
