Thirroul Junior Football Club has more than 400 juniors in teams from Under 6s to Under 18s. The club's aim is to foster football by creating an environment for our Thunderbolts players where success is judged - not by winning - but by having fun, improving skills and participating in a club that is active within the community.

Return to training at Gibson Park

Thirroul JFC is excited to announce that teams can return to training at Gibson Park from Monday, 25 May after the club received clearances to resume from Football South Coast and Wollongong City Council.

This follows the lifting of the suspension of football activities by Football NSW on Friday, 22 May.

However, there are some changes in place for the initial return to training and this is going to require the co-operation of all players, parents and coaches.

These are temporary but need to be followed to enable all of our teams to be be able to train under the requirements in place due to COVID-19.

1. Players can only train in groups of up to 10 in an area equivalent to a quarter of a pitch (50m x 30m). To accommodate this, half a field has been allocated for those teams with more than 10 players so coaches can organise two groups to train alongside each other.

2. Coaches/Managers will need to maintain a record of attendance for each session, including which group each player was in. This is for contact tracing purposes if someone in the group or someone who is a close contact of a person in the group was to develop COVID symptoms.

3. All junior teams can only train at Gibson Park once per week and must train at the allocated place at the allocated time. A training map has been published on the thirroulfootball.com.au website. 

4. Teams training on Ground 1 and 2 need to finish by 6pm to avoid any crossover when the senior teams arrive for their sessions on Monday-Thursday nights.

A Return To Training Hub has been created and has other important information about the requirements for players, parents and coaches.

Please take the time to read this information so you understand the protocols in place for the next few weeks. FNSW have advised that they are seeking a return to play on July 1.

Thirroul JFC has installed hand sanitiser stations outside the canteen and at the other end of the building where the Summer 7s goals are stored, as well as in the male and female toilets.

Team managers or coaches will advise when training resumes for each team.
