Welcome to Asquith Magpies Season 2017
Whilst our Registration Day has come and gone, we are still open to new registrations.
Simply visit the website playnrl.com
Select New Registration, Player, enter the Club Asquith and key in your Email address. An email will be sent to you to select a Password. You then go back into playnrl.com and key in the password. The system will then ask you for information about the player. You will also need a credit card to pay the Registration Fees.
Our registration fees continue to be amongst the cheapest in any sport with Under 6’s being $50, Under 7 to Under 12 being $80 and Under 13 to Under 17 being $110 for the 2017 season. Under 19’s registration will be free. For families re-registering more than one child you will need to register them all at the same time to take advantage of the multi-registration discount, i.e., where there are 3 or more children registering, the 3rd and subsequent child will only have to pay $2. For these fees, the player will receive their playing gear, insurance cover, plus more.
Once registered and fees are paid, there is nothing more to do. The Coach or Team Manager for your team will be in touch with you by mid- to late February to let you know about training, trials and the season start. For new players who registered via playnrl.com, you will need to bring the original birth certificate or passport to the first training session.
Our training is held on different days and times and in summary:
· Ages 6-8 will train on Thursday between 4 and 6 (time to be fixed by the coach) at James Park Hornsby
· Ages 9 and upwards– will train at Storey Park between Monday and Friday on days and times organised by the coach. Prior to 1 April, we will be training at Berry Park from 4pm onwards on Tuesdays and Thursdays (as advised by your coach or Team Manager).
At this stage it is likely that the competition will start early April but this is yet to be confirmed. The competition will complete around the end of August. A full season draw will be made available prior to the season kicking off.
As a club we welcome you back. As the Asquith Leagues Club provides generous support to the Rugby League Club, which allows us to keep our registration fees very low, we encourage parents to take up membership of our Leagues club, Magpies Waitara.
The club has many excellent facilities including:
· An excellent Bistro called The Kitchen
· An Asian Restaurant called Lucky Magpies (beautiful food)
· A new area known as The Pavilion (a great place to relax with family or friends)
· New Children facilities
· Friendly bar and Entertainment and Function Centre
For only $5.50 per year, you have access to a great facility for dining, entertainment or just relaxation.
The Football Club will do everything to ensure players and families have an excellent experience and the only things we ask of you are:
Players
Always respect your fellow team mates, opposition players and club officials. Play to the best of your ability and within the spirit of the game. Most of all have fun and play in a safe manner. The game of Rugby League can help you develop many life skills such as teamwork, communication, leadership, respect and many more.
Parents/Friends/Family
Always encourage players and recognise great play and great effort (for your team and the opposition). Enjoy the game and be very proud of your child’s efforts. Don’t get involved in any anti-social behaviour and just ignore others who do. Don’t let other people ruin your day at the footy. If there is something happening at the club that you are not happy with, raise it with an official of the club and we will take immediate action if we can.
Lastly, be a volunteer. A contribution of a few hours of your valuable time per season will help the club prosper and be able to provide the kids with the great gear we do provide. We look forward to a great season ahead.
