2025 PLAYER, COACH AND MANAGER REGISTRATIONS.

The Play Football registration system will be active from Saturday 4th January.

HOWEVER PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION RELATING TO PLAY FOOTBALL.

The company that previously managed the Play Football system withdrew in late 2024 and as a result Football Australia (FA) has had to take over.  FA could not continue to use the previous system, so the system is basically new.  User accounts from the previous system have been transferred across to the new system so returning players, coaches and managers should be able to login and register.  New registrations will have to create an account before they can register.

Points to note:

1)     From this year all coaches and managers 18 or older must have a current Working With Children certificate or notification, a copy of which will need to be loaded into your registration record.

2)     The new system will only accept credit or debit cards for payment of the registration fee.  It will not be possible to accept cash or any form of bank transfer.

For redemption of Active Kids Vouchers or to organize periodic payments please contact the club secretary at Secretary@thirroulfootball.com.au

3)     Support information is available at

https://support.playfootball.com.au/support/solutions/22000108616

4)     The club will hold registration day or days toward the end of January to provide advice and assistance with registrations as well as having shorts, socks and club merchandise available for purchase.  Details will be advised when they are finalized.

5)     The registration fees have not been increased this year, they are:

All Juniors $250.00 – 5 to 18 years old.

All Seniors $300.00 – players over 18 includes anyone who registers in Premier and District League Youth Grade.

SUNDAY 30th JUNE GIBSON PARK IS CLOSED - GROUNDS WATERLOGGED

The primary responsibility of the club is to the safety of players. On weekends especially the club must make the decision on whether or not a ground is safe to use as the City Council cannot inspect all grounds. The attached photos indicate the state of Gibson Park this morning. While other sports may consider it safe to play on a ground like this the potential for knee and ankle injuries in these conditions is greatly increased. The club closed grounds reluctantly, but with the best interests of play also the primary consideration.
