Small-Sided Playing Rules

As a reminder for all players, coaches, parents, and supporters, the small-sided format and Playing Rules for all grades is outlined here. Playing Rules for Coaches 2008

The rules of soccer are simple. If we all make every effort to play by them, and also remember the principle of "scoring goals, having fun, good sportsmanship, and fair play" then we will all have a much better experience.

Weekly Match Draw

This can be found by following the Draw link on the left side bar and choosing the respective grade. The Weekly Match Draw will be available on Thursday evening of each week for that Saturday's game. It will also be posted on the noticeboard outside the clubrooms on Saturday morning. Draw
