These rules are set by BDAFA as at 30/1/2020.
- Grades 6 to 21 inclusive – Must be a minimum of five years old by 31st December of the current playing year. A player’s eligible age is determined by the age they attain in the current calendar year. A player may not register or participate in an age group which is more than two (2) years above the age they turn in the current calendar year (exceptions at the discretion of BDAFA). Hence a kid turning 7 anytime this year can play in either Grade 7, Grade 8 or Grade 9.
- Over 35 – must have had their 35th birthday by 31st December of the year preceding the current season
- Other Over Age competitions such as Over 45 or Over 30 Ladies – managed the same way as Over 35.
- All Age including Premier League – must have already passed their 17th birthday prior to being eligible to register and play (exceptions at the discretion of BDAFA).
- Kindy – more relaxed aged restrictions. We accept 3 – 5 year olds.
