If you believe there may be a case of COVID in your team, please follow the Football NSW advice
The club is obliged to follow a strict set of requirements for football to recommence this year, which could be revoked at any time if the guidelines are not followed, or the government deems the risks too great.
All participants are requested to follow these rules diligently to ensure the season is able to recommence and continue.
The current HPW UPDATED COVID19 SAFETY PLAN must be followed. All members, parents and supporters need to be aware and follow the advice.
See new requirements posted 21 August and updated 25 September.
As of 7th August, all attendees to CDSFA parks are required to record attendance. See details on how to Record your Attendance.

Coaches should have been sent a team personalised attendance sheet for their team from Age Co-ordinators which is to be used to record attendees and times. THIS IS A REQUIREMENT OF OUR RETURN TO TRAINING. If you do not have the personalised sheet, you can use this Generic Training attendance sheet
2. SEND DETAILS TO THE CLUB
– We have produced a short google form that the coach/manager of each team MUST respond to for each training session (even if the training did not go ahead).
It is a short form, with a few questions, with the ability to upload a photo of your attendance record (from Step One) Attendance record upload
– If you cannot upload, there is the option to email the form, please see details in the Attendance record upload link.
We will check each week and follow up with any age coordinator for which there is no response.
