WILLIAMSTOWN JUNIORS
2015 will see the start of a new era at the Williamstown Juniors Football Club, with the introduction of a new strategic coaching pathways program with senior club Williamstown CYMS improving the skills of the next crop of young stars.
Add to that a new president, committee and coaches, Steve Ryan says it’s going to be a great year both on and off the field for the Seagulls.
Teams fielding in 2015:
We’re fielding approx. 16 teams this season.
How has the pre-season been?
Our new President and Committee was elected back in October and we have been working very hard behind the scenes on both on and off field matters in preparation for the 2015 season.
Williamstown Juniors have also joined forces with Williamstown CYMS, a rising senior club in VAFA premier ranks, to launch a new strategic coaching pathways program. For more info, click here…

What are your expectations for the new season?
We strive to provide an inclusive and cohesive environment for all children to enjoy their football and realise their potential. We believe that WJFC is a vital component of the development of AFL in the area and a springboard for all players to transition to senior football and embark on what is hopefully a lifetime of involvement and enjoyment in the game.
