Gympie Junior Touch

Draw for Wednesday 26th of August. Full games for the u11 this week. Meet at your field to get your jersey's from your coaches.
Gympie Girls u14 have the bye this week.
Our referees are doing a fantastic job, most of our referees are learning and everybody makes mistakes, as a player, spectator or coach please do not call out to the referees. We want them to come back and to enjoy the game as much as the players. Please respect the job they are doing.
let's have a great 3rd week of Touch

Here is the Draw for this Wednesday 19th August.

We do need a manager for the u11 Memphis Team. If you have a child in this team and could help with this team mainly subbing and fair play for the kids, washing of jerseys weekly and making sure they are back for play the following week, could you please come and see us at the clubhouse this could be achieved by a couple of parents working together. I have the jerseys from last week that will need to be collected.

The Hatch Girls team has the BYE this week

Can all the refs make sure you are at the clubhouse before your game to collect the buckets to set the field up.

Looking forward to the second week of juniors on Wednesday. If your Child is not registered in Juniors by Wednesday, they will not be able to take the field to play this week. If you are having trouble registering, please message the Junior Touch page so we can try to help you

📢 SEASON KICK-OFF – DRAW & TEAM UPDATE 🏉

We’re sorry for the late post of tomorrow’s draw and game times. Due to some late registrations, we’ve had to re-jig our teams to make the competitions as even and fair as possible. This has also meant making some slight changes to our game times.

We have been very careful and considerate when taking everyone’s requests into account, however, unfortunately we aren’t always able to accommodate every request.

🏉 U11 COMPETITION

Our U10 competition has now become our U11 competition.

If your child is 8, 9, 10 or 11 years old this year, they will play in our U11 competition, with games starting from 3:40pm.

For the first few weeks, the first 15 minutes will be drills and skills, giving our new players a chance to learn the game and become comfortable on the field.

The second half will be a 15-minute game, with our referees and team managers there to help and support the players.

These first few weeks are all about learning, teaching, building confidence and, most importantly, inclusion in our game. ❤️🏉

🏉 U14 COMPETITION

Our U14 competition has now been split into Boys and Girls competitions.

If your child is 12, 13 or 14 years old this year, they will play in the U14 competition.

Our girls currently have 3 teams, which means one team will have a BYE each week.

👉 The girls’ team that has the BYE tomorrow will be contacted directly.

We are still accepting registrations, so if you know of any girls in this age group who would like to come and play, please get in touch with us! 💙

The U14 game times will change each week, so please keep an eye out for your team’s draw and game time. Games may be scheduled around 4:30pm or 5:20pm.

💙 A BIG THANK YOU

As I’m sure everyone can appreciate, we are doing our very best to make our competitions as even, fair and enjoyable as possible.

We’ll be watching the games closely over the next few weeks and, if we feel changes need to be made to teams to ensure the competitions remain balanced, we will make those changes.

Team lists will be posted outside the clubhouse tomorrow afternoon.

If you are able to help coach or manage the team your child is playing in, please come and see us at the clubhouse before the games start. Any help is greatly appreciated ,we genuinely cannot do this without our volunteers and our club community. ❤️

Thank you all for your patience and understanding while we get everything organised.

Let’s have a great first afternoon back and, most importantly, let’s get the kids out there having fun! 🏉💙

See you all tomorrow!
