Our Junior Program proudly competes in the Essendon District Football League, providing opportunities for boys and girls of all ages to learn, develop and enjoy Australian Rules Football in a supportive and inclusive environment. The program is built on strong values of participation, teamwork, respect and enjoyment, creating a positive foundation for young players to grow both on and off the field.

​

Under the guidance of Junior Vice President Jeremy Hearne and the leadership of our senior programs, the club places strong emphasis on development, skill progression and creating a pathway for players to continue their football journey through to senior football. Coaches and volunteers are committed to fostering confidence, sportsmanship and a love for the game across all junior teams.

​

The program continues to grow each season, with increasing participation across both boys and girls football. A strong focus on community connection, player wellbeing and development ensures that every child has the opportunity to be part of a welcoming and supportive football environment.

​

Supported by dedicated families, volunteers and the wider club community, the Junior Program plays a vital role in building the future of Westmeadows Football Club and strengthening the connection between grassroots football and the club’s senior pathways.
