More than 150 youngsters signed up with club committee members in the Queenstown Events Centre.
Club treasurer Rebecca Read said there had been a steady stream of parents and children completing registration forms and browsing the football kit sales all day.

The ratio between boys and girls was estimated to be 80 to 20, whereas a few years ago the split was more like 99 to 1, she said.
Registrations continue on the club's website until February 28.
Training starts on March 16 and games begin on April 3 and continue on Sundays for the season.
