Member Update – Postponement Extended
We hope you are keeping safe and well during this difficult time. Please see below a couple of updates on the football season.
New Zealand Football and the seven Federations have announced that the community football postponement has been extended until at least Queen’s Birthday Weekend (Saturday 30 May 2020), due to the COVID-19 pandemic. You can see the full release on their website at https://www.nzfootball.co.nz/newsarticle/89084
Auckland Football Federation is drafting various scenarios of what the football season looks like for when are able to resume. The club is in constant communication with Auckl and Football to stay updated and we continue to plan in the background how we will get our members on the grass when the time is right. Each age group (junior, youth, senior) was at various stages of pre-season (trainings, trials, or yet to start) before the lockdown begun, and we will look to pick-up where we left off once we can, where possible.
We will continue to provide updates when they are available.
There are a number of great initiatives coming from NZ Football and Auckland Football to keep engaged during the lockdown, see the below links and keep an eye on our club Facebook page:
