Coolum FC participates in the Mini Roo Football League within the Football Queensland Sunshine Coast Region. This is a non-competitive program for Under 6 to Under 12 divisions.

The mini-roo season runs from March/April until August/September for all age groups. Each season also incorporates two carnival days for all age groups. 

Under 6 to Under 8 age groups are not graded. Existing teams are kept together as they progress through these age groups. New players are organised into teams based on availability. Under 9 to Under 12 teams are graded and organised via a trial system. Trials run prior to the beginning of each season and will be announced via our social media pages and via email for our existing players. New players are welcome. Players MUST register to confirm their position on a team.

In 2024, Coolum had 32 Mini Roo teams across all age groups including 4 girls teams. Girls may play in mixed teams in all mini-roo age groups or may play in girls only leagues in Under 6/7, Under 8/9, and Under 10/11 divisions.

Players are required to play in the age group that they will be in the given year (For example, a child born in 2010 will play in the Under 15 age group in 2025). With permission from the Technical Director and team coach, players may play up one age division. With permission from the Technical Director, team coach and Football Queensland, players may apply to play up two age groups or down one age group. Teams are limited in how many players can play out of their correct age group; please contact techdirector@coolumfc.com.au if your child may need to play in an out of age team. Children who turn 5 in 2025 are eligible to play in under 6 teams.

The cost for registration for 2025 will remain unchanged at $350 for the season. Players will need to purchase Coolum FC socks and shorts and provide their own shin guards and boots. A playing shirt will be provided for all players. An optional 50th year anniversary training shirt will be available to purchase via the Squadi shop shortly.

Registration is completed via registration.squadi.com any questions regarding registration should be directed to registrar@coolumfc.com.au. Registration for the 2025 season will open in November 2024.

All teams are coached by volunteers. Volunteers are required to hold blue cards and are encouraged to complete the Foundations of Football Coaching Course with Football Queensland. Each team also benefits if a parent volunteers to act as manager. If you are interested in getting involved in coaching or managing a team, please contact techdirector@coolumfc.com.au
