Junior Teams

Knox United FC Junior teams first started in 2019 and since then our Junior teams have been able to steadily grown through the years.
In 2023 Knox United had a Super League team in the Under 18’s. As well as Division 2 team in the Under 13 age group. In 2024 the club will have a Super League team in the Under 14’s.

As our Junior program grows, Knox United are keen to create a second team within the same age group for a more social aspect of the game in another division.

Playing for Knox United offers young players the chance to be a part of an ever growing and welcoming club. Providing you with many great opportunities, to grow and improve your skills in the game that we love.
We welcome all players, regardless of football background. If you’re a retuning player or someone wanting to get back into the sport; to wanting to play for the very first time.
No affiliation with the Knox Grammar School is needed to play, all are welcome.
Regardless of what team you’re in Win, Draw or Loss. We’ pride ourselves on the community aspect of our club, with supporting each on and off the filed.
