To access free travel, they must tap the myki card on and off each time they travel. For areas that do not use myki cards, they must show their myki card to travel free.

More information about the youth myki card will be available later in Term 4, 2025 – refer to the myki types webpage on the Transport Victoria website.

Elwood City Soccer Club

Elwood City Soccer Club is holding Development Squad trials for our 2026 season, and we’re inviting young players from the local community to come along and give it a go.

Our Development Squads focus on developing confident, skilful, and creative players in a fun and supportive environment. The program is led by experienced, qualified coaches who prioritise growth, teamwork, and a lifelong love for the game.

Teams generally compete in Kangaroo and Community A divisions, offering a great level of competition for players ready to take that next step — or those simply looking for a fresh challenge and a chance to reach their full potential.

Even if a player hasn’t yet found the right team fit, our trials are a fantastic opportunity to build confidence, learn, and enjoy playing alongside others who share the same passion.

Trial Details: commencing week of 13 OctoberMore details & registration: https://www.elwoodcityjuniors.org/devsquadtrials2026
