New Players’ Requirement

All new players under the age of 18 must bring along proof of identity and age which includes one of the following – Birth Certificate, Extract of Birth, Passport, or Certificate of Australian Citizenship.

Request to Play with a Friend or Team

We understand that there are situations where players would like to be assigned to the same team as one or more of their friends.

A formal request can be submitted to the Club. Please email our Director of Football (doc@samfordrangers.org.au) for your child to play with one or more of his/her friends. This opportunity is limited to players up to and including the Under 9 age group, as children older than this participate in the grading process to determine team allocation.

Wherever possible, players who played at the Club last season are automatically allocated to that same team for the new season. If you have strong views for your child not to play in the same team as last year, please email our Director of Football to request an assignment to another team if at all possible. Please note that due to team size restrictions and other logistical factors, it may not be possible to satisfy all requests (refer: SSF Team Equality Policy).
