A warm welcome to our 2010 Rangers players, families and supporters.

We’re looking forward to another great season with Forest Rangers Football Club Inc. At the beginning of the 2010 season we have some really important information to share with you. Read on to find out more.

How do I register?

Registration is at Gannons Park, Pindari Road on Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th February from 10:00am to 4:00pm. Start at the canteen and we’ll direct you from there. Given our tight deadlines, this is the ONLY time available for registration. Players will need to attend registration in person to enable us to take a photograph (if you are a new player) and to fit shorts, socks and shirts. All players under the age of 18 must have a parent or guardian sign their registration form where required.

What if I’m a new player?

That’s great, and a really warn welcome to you from our club – we look forward to you joining us. At registration we need you to bring an original birth certificate or passport which we’ll then keep a photocopy of for our records. We also need to take your photograph so you must attend in person.

What do I have to pay?

Our fees are the same as 2009 and cover items such as insurance, match and referee fees, Association levies, socks, shorts and a polo shirt. 2010 fees are:

We pride ourselves on being a family club, so to encourage siblings we offer a discount of $10 per additional player.

All fees are due and payable at registration. Senior teams should note that if there are insufficient financial players available to fulfill minimum requirements for a team sheet the club will not be entering that team in the competition.

I’d like to be a coach and/or manager. What do I need to do?

All coaches, managers need to provide a copy of their driver’s license or passport to meet Football NSW requirements. There are also forms to complete which we will have available on registration day. We especially invite potential young coaches (from about 13 or 14 years of age) to coach under 6, 7 or 8 year old teams. Two friends could get together to help each other or we can pair you with an older coach. The committee will finance the Beginner’s Coaching Course – you’ll have a great time and learn lots too. If you are interested please let us know. We also conduct coaching nights to provide tips and techniques for coaching juniors run by experienced coaches from our club.

What are my obligations to Forest Rangers?

We are a volunteer-run club and have managed to keep our fees to 2009 levels due to the success of our canteen. Therefore, a requirement of accepting a player’s registration is that a family member fulfills their commitment to help out with field set up and canteen duty once a season for a few hours. It’s also a lot of fun and a good team-bonding opportunity.
