Engadine Dragons JRLFC Grading Guidelines

All participants/players for the Engadine Dragons JRLFC in ages ranging from U8 to U16 are to

be graded in the appropriate division/grade according to the participants/players ability and

skill level.

Grading is beneficial to ensure a safe and positive environment for participants.

In addition to this, the players are graded so they are playing with, and against players of a

similar ability while nurturing and developing all players’ skill level.

The Engadine Dragons JRLFC follows the NRL National Code of conduct which can be found at

Grading Personnel

The above criteria will be attended to and monitored by the Engadine Dragons independent

grading committee members, which have been appointed by Adam Peek; Coaching and

grading co-ordinator. Opinions of all appointed coaches will also be considered in the grading

process; however, the final decision as to a player’s division/grade will always be determined by

the Engadine Dragons Grading Committee.

At the end of the grading process, any appeals should be put in writing for the attention of

Adam Peek, and will be considered by the Engadine Dragons Grading Committee.
