Grading Day 2026 Information

Grading Day is an important part of building balanced, competitive teams at Grays Point Soccer Club. Our grading policy has been developed to ensure the process is fair, transparent and focused on giving every player the opportunity to play, develop and enjoy their football.

On grading day, players are assessed by experienced club graders using consistent criteria that reflect skill level, game awareness, teamwork and attitude. The aim is not just to place players based on ability, but to create teams that support long-term development, sportsmanship and a positive club culture.

The following policies outline how grading works, what players and parents can expect on the day, and how final team selections are made. We encourage all families to read through the policy so everyone understands the process and the principles that guide our decisions.
