We have a had a few questions around our upcoming junior competition.
Like all of us on the NORTHERN BEACHES we are waiting to see when our lock down will end.
At this stage our competition will still be going ahead either on Friday September 11th OR October 16th. We will be closing registrations at the end of August. As you can appreciate there has to be a cut off for shirt orders, draws and all the other things that go with organising a competition.
If the lock down keeps being extended the options are below-
Later start date and catch up with rounds possible being played mid week and the season finishing in February/March 2022.
If parents register and our competition is cancelled we are happy to refund all teams.
If we start the season and play a certain amount of rounds there may be the option of a part refund. This will be announced when the competition officially kicks off.
