Teams
At La Trobe Soccer Club (LUSC), we have a wide range of teams for players of all levels of experience and abilities. We describe these groups as Performance and Social Teams, though there is some overlap!
Training
On Tuesday and Thursday, our Men's Performance Teams, known as M1, M2 and M3 train together, in preparation for matches on Saturday and Sunday.
Our Women's Performance and Social Teams, known as W1 and W2, also train on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Both teams train at the same time. Both teams play on Sunday.
On Wednesdays, our Social Men's Teams, known as M4 and M5 train together, preparing for Sunday matches.
For all teams, training session timings are as follows:
Arrival: 6:40pm
Start: 7:00pm
Finish: 8:30pm
Players should arrive at the LUSC Clubhouse (search Lower Playing Fields Pavilion on Google Maps).
