Hi Everyone,
Firstly a BIG thankyou
to those of you who did complete registration & payment quickly.
We know this is costly & time consuming but it’s most important
to have this done on time as Eurobodalla Football Association (EFA)
needs this information ASAP. Otherwise the team grading & setting
up of the draw will be held up. I am sure you can appreciate all the
hard work that goes on behind the scenes not only by our local club
but also by the EFA.
Fees need to be paid on
time as they are passed on to; EFA, Council, Southern Branch, FNSW,
FFA, Insurance & a small amount is retained by us to cover things
such as equipment, uniforms, field setup & end of year presentation.
Those of you who have not paid will need to PAY NOW or we will have
no choice but not to allow you take the field at your next game, please
come see us ASAP. We can be found at the canteen Thursday training
afternoon’s 4-5pm, or on a Sunday or please call Amy 44735080.
FUNDRAISING AND
SPONSORS NEEDED
If anyone has ideas or
can help us with fundraising and gaining sponsors it would be most
appreciated as our club is in need of funds.

## Please keep an eye out
for the canteen draw as it becomes available as everyone is required
to help out just THIS LITTLE BIT.
Canteen;
The Canteen is the place
we need you to be, we need everyone’s help. Donna has fantastically
agreed to do the ordering & will set up a team roster (please
see coach, notice board at oval or website for your teams turn).
This year teams will be rostered to help out in the canteen at home
games. It will be the rostered teams’ responsibility to run
it on their own. The takings & team sheets will be collected at
the end of each day. Your cooperation in helping us run the canteen
is always appreciated. This will share the load & allow everyone
a chance to watch their own children play.
Our club is a non profit organisation & needs to raise money in
order to: save you money on registration fees, help purchase equipment
- balls, shirts, nets etc, trophies for presentation day & pays
referees fee‘s.
Please talk to your coach/manager
& let them know that you are available to help out. Your cooperation
in helping us run the canteen is most appreciated. NOTE: Without the
income of the canteen the soccer club has no option other than to
increase the registrations fees even more substantially.
BBQ
- Our club needs helpers to cook the snags on the BBQ. Just let someone
on the committee know you are available or just turn up on the day.
Club Meetings
BODALLA SOCCER CLUB BOARD
HAS DECIDED THAT WE REQUIRE ONE REPRESENTATIVE FROM EVERY TEAM TO
ATTEND EACH OF OUR MEETING’S

& everyone is welcome to come along. Meetings are now held the

UNFILLED TEAMS

filling up some of our teams this year and as a result had to withdraw

In wet weather you can
telephone the coach in the afternoon of training (if necessary) to
ask if training will be on (if it is raining at 2.30pm, the school
will be notified of cancellation & children sent home on their
usual bus). It is your responsibility to let your child know what
to do in case it is raining & do not assume there will be someone
there to look after them. Thank you in advance for your cooperation
which will help keep our children safe.
Uniforms
(Full uniform must be worn
at all matches). Shirts are provided by the Club. Some shorts &
socks are available at either our canteen or the Bodalla School canteen.

Please give them to Kerrie.
Team Shirts
All players & parents
are requested to take their teams’ shirts home for washing on
a rotating basis & return them to their coach/manager on the following
training day to ensure that those shirts will be available on time
for the next competition game. PLAYERS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO KEEP SHIRTS
FOR THE SEASON.
Competition Games
All the competition games
are played on Sundays at the various venues & are only cancelled
if the field is unplayable, not because the players may get wet. Normally
the cancellation will be announced on the local radio stations as
early as possible on the day of the game or contact your team Manager
or Coach for information. Players should turn up at least 30-45 minutes
before the game to give the coach/manager a chance to form a team,
fill in the team sheet, h& out shirts etc.
The competition draw will
be provided to coaches at a training session as soon as they become
available. Some games may have to be played on Saturdays. Games for
Under 6/7/8/9/10 are designed to encourage skill development &
team play. There is no point score system & no competition table.
Round Robin Days will be held. Half Time Drinks All players should
bring their own drinks for the half time refreshment. Dehydration
should not be underestimated. To enable coaches to talk to their players
& keep them together, all the drinks should be kept in one location.
Setting up of fields
for home games
For home games the fields
need to be set up before the first games. Setting up starts one hour
before the first game. Volunteers are required to put up the nets,
flags, goals posts etc. The first teams on MUST help set up the fields
& the last teams on MUST take down the nets, flags, goal posts
etc. & return these to the clubhouse.
Association Meetings
These meetings are held
every last Tuesday of the month at the Moruya Golf Club starting at
