INFO:

Draws & Game Times

Draws and updates will be posted weekly on our Facebook page.

College grade will only go ahead if there are enough teams in this grade. Otherwise they will merge into a mixed social grade.

​Open and Grade 1 will start the season as a combined grade. After the break, these grades will be split based on the current grade standings. 

Time slots will be catered to for players/teams who ref.

Time slots cannot be requested (unless you provide a ref).

If you play in more than one team we may not be able to cater for time slots to suit you. However, please let us know if this affects you and we will do our best where possible.

Game times: 5.45pm, 6.20pm, 6.55pm, 7.30pm, 8.05pm (if required)

 

Team referees

Due to the low numbers of referees in the region at present, teams in Open, 1 and 2 grades will be required to have a refereeing duty once a season. Teams will be required to provide 2 referees per time slot when on duty (except when your game is on). We hope to be able to buddy up team referees with trained referees, however this will depend on numbers. 

 

Mixed Teams

For a valid mixed game there is a maximum of 3 males on the field at any one time. Therefore if your team has only one female, you will have 4 players on the field. If the opposition and referee agree you may play more males but will forfeit the game. If you can't consistently field a mixed team, we can simply move you into Mens. You may play young boys as women. They must be 10 years or younger, ie. clearly young boys.

​

Starting Times

Games must start on time with a minimum of 4 players/side. If a side is not ready at the starting hooter, the ref can add a touchdown to the ready side at a rate of 1 per minute, until the games starts or is forfeited.

​

Uniforms

Matching, numbered tops must be worn, preferably with matching or black shorts. The ref may add a touchdown to the non-offending side if your team is not in uniform at the start of each half. Regular offenders will forfiet their game. You will need to wear covered-toe footwear. Being stood on by plastic cleats is painful!

​

Defaults

Please contact us via Facebook messenger if you cannot field a team on a particular day, as soon as is possible, before midday so we can post on the page or make arrangements for a replacement team.

​

Cancellations

Our home grounds are run and maintained by the council. Therefore, the council make the decision to close our grounds due to weather conditions.

In the event of poor weather, we will make a call by 2pm on the day and post this to our Facebook page if games are cancelled.

Please make sure you and your players are following the page to get updates.
