Registration Frequently Asked Questions
Please contact registrar@oatleyfc.com.au
Please remember this is for help only. Parents or players must use Playfootball to register.
To enable us to plan for the season and meet deadlines set by Football St George.
The timetable of events is:
- Registrations completed before grading in mid February.
- Grading days 2nd week of February
- Teams created and submitted to FSG by the end of February
- Trial games in mid march
- First game first week in April (season runs until the end of August)
We believe that children will get the most out of playing in a team where they play against players of similar ability. It is all about giving them time on the ball and providing a suitable challenge.
Please Click Here to read our post with more information on Grading Days
The club will continue to accept registrations, providing there are places in teams in the relevant age groups. No registration will be accepted by FSG after June 30th.
A $50 discount will apply to students who register in the All Age 19years + or PWL 19years +. This applies to full time students or apprentices.
You will need to pay the full price in Playfootball however please send your 2024 student enrolment or 2023 student ID card as well as your bank details to your manager. Your manager will then pass this onto the club to refund you the $50.
Please note this discount applies to full time students over 19 or apprentices. Hopefully this will help with our players just starting off their careers.
Each age group has a minimum and maximum team size. At times the number of registrations in a particular age group will be such that it is not possible to accommodate all players. For the ages U6 to U11 and adult teams we have so many players that this is never a problem. We may experience problems with teams in the U12-U18 age groups. We recommend that players in this age group register before grading days, so we can plan for the right numbers of team in these age groups.
https://www.oatleyfc.com.au/season-2023-oatley-fc-apparel-provided-by-age-group/
A child turning 5 this year can play in the Under 6s.
The age group you play in is the age you turn this year. So if your child turns 12 this year, then they will play in the u12. For over 35 and over 45, you must have turned 35 or 45 by the end of June this year.
Oatley FC encourages players to register with teams playing in their true age grade. However, it is possible for players to register to play for teams that are up to two years above their actual age grade
From U6 to U9, girls can choose to play in mixed boys and girls teams on a Saturday or form all female teams as desired and play in a dedicated female comp also on a Saturday.
From U10 to U12, girls can still choose to play in mixed teams on a Saturday or form all female teams as desired and play in a dedicated female comp on a Sunday.
From U14 up to All Age Women, females participate in graded female only competitions running on a Sunday.
Under 6 to 9:
In these age groups we have a lot of teams. In general, we can form teams with groups of friends. Please speak to the age co-ordinator on grading day, if you have a group of friends that want to play together.
Under 10 and above:
In the older age groups there are less teams and the differences between player’s ability increases. This makes it more difficult to keep friends together.
Games are played at our home grounds of Renown Park, The Green and Carinya School and at the home grounds of our opposition clubs in the St George area.
- All under 9s and below play Saturday Mornings.
- Boys up to U18 play Saturday mornings.
- All age men play Saturday afternoon.
- Girl’s and Women’s comps from u10 to all age are played on Sundays.
- Over 35s play Sunday
- Over 45s play Friday nights
Training times and dates are arranged by agreement with all the players and parents, but must always be at a time convenient to the coach. In general training is one day per week, but older age groups may train more often.
Our training grounds are Renown, Carinya School and the Green. With limited grounds available and with so many teams we try and accommodate teams as much as possible however this is not always possible. Rest assured your team will have a space to train on.
