Important Changes to Senior 5-Aside Registrations
For this summer’s 5-aside season, we’ve made a few changes to how registrations work.
In past years, it has been really difficult to manage the draws after Christmas, with teams dropping out due to pre-season commitments, university, or just not showing up regularly. Because of that, we are now offering:
-
Term 4 only registration (Pre-Christmas)
-
Term 1 only registration (Post-Christmas)
-
Full Season (both terms) – only if you can commit to fielding a team across both terms
If you know your team won’t continue after the Christmas break (e.g. senior pre-season starts, uni, etc.), please select Term 4 only when registering.
We typically have a large waitlist, so we’d rather fill the draw with teams who will turn up each week. This helps keep the league fair and makes it much easier on our administrator.
Friday Night League (NEW!)
Due to high demand, we are trialling a Friday night league this season.
Please note:
-
It will only go ahead if enough teams register
-
Choose your preferred night carefully, as you may not be able to switch back to Thursday if Thursday fills up!
-
Women’s Only League now available on Friday nights
-
One timeslot only on Fridays (6pm), unless numbers grow enough to add a second time slot
Thanks for understanding, and we really appreciate the teams that help keep the league running smoothly!
