Hurlstone Park Wanderers is home to around 1500 players spread over 90 teams. There’s lots to know about Game Day, and everyone is expected to get involved and help out. Please read on for all the details, including wet weather, game day tasks, and more!
Hurlstone Park Wanderers is a community club that promotes playing football in an inclusive manner, with respect for opponents, officials, and for the love of the game.
Teams should arrive at least 30 min before their scheduled kick-off so that the players have time to warm up and Managers can do paperwork and pay the officials. Games that start late due to admin issues will be cut short. Teams on field set up should arrive 45 min before kick-off.
We expect our teams to assist in the weekly operation of the grounds, in the setting up of fields, and the packing away of fields. We also expect our teams to have the mandatory Team Official, in the yellow vest, present at every game they play, to assist and observe ground officials.
At the end of the game, all players/Coaches/Managers should shake hands with their opponents, and thank them for the game. Coaches/Managers should shake hands with the officials and thank them for their efforts. See our Covid Guidelines for the most recent recommendations.
Players should move away from the technical zone quickly so that the following game can commence on time. For details on Referee payments, Match sheets, recording of results and payments head to the relevant Resources page.

GAME DAY
Dribl is the source of truth on whether matches go ahead. Please use the Dribl site to confirm whether your match is on or not.
The basic rule is to assume that your game will go ahead until updated as such on Dribl. Games can be transferred to other fields and start times on occasions, and your Age Coordinator will be in touch if that is the case. Please do not contact Football Canterbury directly.
Football in the Canterbury district is played across the inner west, covering areas such as Roselands, Concord, Balmain to Marrickville, and quite a few suburbs in between.
Dribl contains a list of field locations that can be accessed on their website here.
WHAT WE WILL DO
Make sure parents/guardians and children know the time and location of practice and games and when they can expect to collect their children.
Request Coaches and other sporting personnel to arrive before scheduled practice or game times.
Give Coaches a register of parent/guardian emergency contact numbers and make sure they have access to a phone.
Ensure that if parents/guardians are late, Coaches will try to make contact with them and:
