KBFC — Season 2012 Registrations

Regis­tra­tion Details
To com­pete, play­ers need to com­plete two regis­tra­tion forms and pay the required regis­tra­tion fees. One form is for our club, the other is a require­ment of the Asso­ci­ation (BFQ) to which we belong. 

Age require­ments:
Men’s: play­ers need to be at least 15 years of age
Women’s: play­ers need to be at least 14 years of age

Abil­ity require­ments:
Teams are selec­ted on abil­ity. The coaches assess player’s abil­ity fol­low­ing regis­tra­tion and play­ers are assigned to an appro­pri­ate team. We do try to keep friends together but for the integ­rity of the com­pet­i­tion and con­sist­ent with our val­ues of striv­ing to be the best, being with ‘friends’ is not always possible.

Com­mit­ment Expec­ted:
We expect play­ers to play for the whole sea­son and also expect reg­u­lar attend­ance at train­ing. To play a com­plete pay­ment of fees by the end of April is also expected. 

In some cir­cum­stances play­ers can play for part of a sea­son and we also look for some play­ers who are avail­able on a cas­ual basis as teams have needs. Please talk to the Adini­trator or one of the Coaches if these ‘cas­ual cir­cum­stances’ describe you. Cas­ual play­ers, after pay­ing an ini­tial regis­tra­tion amount, have a small cost to pay on the occa­sions they play. (This is instead of the sea­sonal charge.) 

Train­ing inform­a­tion
We believe that in order to be our best, we need to make every effort to train. Per­sonal cir­cum­stances may not always make this pos­sible. When these cir­cum­stances arise, we expect play­ers to talk with their coach.

There is one mid-​​week team train­ing ses­sion between 7 and 9pm at the Gem Rd fields Ken­more. Some play­ers addi­tion­ally meet to encour­age fitness. 

In the event of per­sist­ent rain, train­ing is usu­ally called off. Coaches will advise teams of this through SMS by 6:30pm. 

Play­ing inform­a­tion
Our home ground tra­di­tion­ally has been Spren­ger St Fig Tree Pocket. 

Games are usu­ally sched­uled for 1pm or 3pm. Game details are pub­lished on the BFQ web­site www​.bfq​.org​.au and also advised by coaches at train­ing and through their estab­lished com­mu­nic­a­tion channels. 

We play against teams in SE Qld. The greatest dis­tance trav­elled is Cabool­ture to the north, Been­leigh to the south and Vic­toria Point to the east. 

Play­ers are expec­ted to arrive at the ground at least 30 minutes before play unless some other arrange­ment is made with the coach. Teams share the respons­ib­il­ity of set­ting up or pulling down nets and posts. 

Club Strip
Two strips are avail­able for the Women’s team: one team plays with a strip that is pre­dom­in­antly blue, the other jer­sey set is mainly white. 

Three strips exist for the Men’s teams; white, blue, and blue & white.

All teams play with dark blue shorts and blue socks. Socks and shorts are avail­able from the club for purchase. 

Player Duties
Fol­low­ing regis­tra­tion, play­ers need to keep in reg­u­lar com­mu­nic­a­tion with their coach and fel­low play­ers. The best way is to attend every train­ing ses­sion and game pos­sible and to advise the coach as soon as pos­sible of occa­sions when not available.

Each team mem­ber through­out the sea­son will be asked to help with some team duties e.g. wash­ing drink bottles, clean­ing jer­seys, and assist­ing keep­ing our home ground in good order. 

Rep­res­ent­at­ive Oppor­tun­it­ies
The BFQ has pro­cesses to select a rep­res­ent­at­ive men’s and women’s team to com­pete at State Titles against other Chris­tian rep­res­ent­at­ive teams from other asso­ci­ations. These pro­cesses usu­ally involve select­ors identi­fy­ing play­ers in game play from the com­mence­ment of the BFQ pre-​​​​season.

The State titles are usu­ally held mid-​​​​season. Fol­low­ing State Titles a state team is selec­ted to play at National titles usu­ally held early Octo­ber. At pre­season com­pet­i­tions you have the oppor­tun­ity to identify if you are inter­ested in being considered.

National com­pet­i­tions exist for Men, Women, Junior Men (U18) and Junior Women (U16)

Forms to be com­pleted with an elec­tronic deposit of $100
