Return to Football Update: Training and Draw Information

Brad Walter

As we get closer to a return to competition, the NSW Government has advised that training can be expanded to groups of 20 from Saturday, 13 June.

TRAINING REQUIREMENTS

Thirroul JFC had already allocated each team with 10 or more players in their squad (Under 10s and older) half of a pitch for training so that groups of 10 within the same team could train side by side on a quarter of a pitch each.

Those groups can now be combined to up to 20 players training together in an area equal to 80 square metres (4 square metres per player).

However, all of the same protocols and requirements remain in place as for training in groups of 10, including:

  • All training at Gibson Park to be in the assigned area for each team and at the assigned start and finish times. Click here for a link to the Training Map.

  • Players are to come already prepared to train – changing rooms will not be in use.

  • Players are to bring their own drink bottles and they are to be labelled. No sharing of drink bottles is permitted.

  • No person-to-person contact training drills to be conducted (eg: 1 v1 tackling drills).

  • Social distancing to be implemented – 1.5m between players.

  • Records of attendance to be maintained. Click here for a template document or take a photo on your phone.

  • Handling of equipment to be kept to a minimum. Throw-ins are discouraged (pass-in as in Futsal). Practising of heading by picking up the ball and throwing should be discouraged.

  • If training bibs are used, each player is to be allocated a bib and required to take their bib home to wash and return.

COMPETITION DRAWS

 These will be published via the Match Centre on the Football South Coast website over the coming week. In summary:

  • Juniors, Community League and Women’s Competitions will proceed with a minimum of 14 rounds.

  • The Junior Football Council will further liaise with clubs around a final series. 

  • The current preference is for the Women’s Competitions and Community League All Age to have a final series.

  • Men’s premiership will commence with the Bert Bampton Cup and organised trial games, followed by eleven rounds where all teams play each other once and a final series.

Please note that competition formatting and scheduled games are subject to requirements of the relevant Public Health Order in existence at that time.

FSC is also working on some guides to assist clubs with operational areas around canteens, change rooms, toilets, id checks, team sheet processes, points of entry guidelines for match days.
