Firstly we would like to thank all our members for being so patient in regards to this. As you can imagine it is a very difficult situation we are in.
Last night the committee met online for the monthly Committee Meeting where we discussed the future of the 2021 Summer Soccer season for both the Juniors and Seniors. It was decided that we will wait for one more month to make a final decision on whether the competitions will go ahead. This decision was influenced by a conversation had by Football NSW with NSW Health in regard to community sport. We will not be able to return until vaccination rates hit 80% which is predicted to be in early November. When the committee meets on the 11th of October we should have more of an idea as to if this will be the case.
We would like to ensure everyone understands that we are doing our best to get some sort of Summer season in for both our Junior and Senior competitions. That said, if we can go ahead the format will not be the same as planned. For example , the seniors will not get a full season and so we will make adjustments when/if the time comes.
We ask that you all hold off on registering until our next update just in case the unfortunate circumstance of canning the Summer season happens. Those that have already registered will notice you have not been approved just yet and we will continue to hold off on that until we know the outcome for the season.
Thank you again for your patience, we hope the next update brings good news. Until then stay safe and look out for one another.
