Wanted: Junior Refs

Marrickville FC is continuing the highly successful junior referee mentoring scheme which last year saw so many of our young players step into an officiating role in the junior games (and earn some pocket money too). Sean O'Connor oversaw the program last year and is taking expressions of interest from players over the age of 12. Email Sean at ref@marrickvillefc.org.au

URGENT REGISTRATION REMINDER - DON'T MISS 2009 SEASON!

Hi all, CDFSA have set a deadline of Monday 1 March for team registrations from U8  to seniors. ALSO we now have to send up full team lists ( in past we could send up incomplete teams and then fill in later). The number of players registering the last 2 weekends has been a bit down and we are worried that players are leaving it too late to register. We will be finalising team lists and grade recommendations on saturday 27 Feburary.  Letters and emails were sent to all players in January with dates of registration throughout Feburary. We only have two weeks to confirm returning players. So we need your help.
1. please contact your teams/players asap and confirm who is coming back for 2009 season.
2. encourage your returning players to register this week or next week at the latest ( wed evenings 5.30-7pm at Mackey Park)
3. Let us know which players are returning so we can make up preliminary team lists in advance.
4. Let us know if you need extra players.
5. let us know your preferred team grade/level.
6. If you are not taking a team this year , let us know so we can nominate someone else to contact your 2008 players

Final team groupings will be decided throughout March in consultation with commitee , coaches/managers and players.

cheers Pam, Mike and Georgina
