When do they train?
Clubs are always reliant upon volunteers to coach and so are generally not in the habit of telling their coaches when and where they can train. Thus, the answer to this will depand on the club, the coach, and the available venues.
As a general rule, Fraser Flames train after school at the college, Sandy Straits and Kawungan train at KDO (Keith Dunne Oval).
When do they Play?
This depends on the age groups.

When should I sign up?
The clubs have to nominate teams fairly soon after sign-up so in order to make sure your son or daughter gets a place in the club of their choice, it is far better for all concerned that you sign up on the designated days. Please do not leave it until after sign-up as this makes life difficult for the volunteers that run our clubs.
How long is the Season?
- Season starts Friday March 19.
- Season ends Saturday September 18.
There will be games most weekends with the exception of Easter and the middle weekend of the July school holidays.
This includes the final series.
