WARRANDYTE JUNIOR FOOTBALL LEAGUE
Uxx PARENT’S INFORMATION
2009
The following information package has been prepared to assist parents to understand how they can
support their child’s football team. Without the support of parents and other volunteers, it would not be
possible to run the season.
This package of information attempts to make sure that we all have access to useful information whether
this is your first season or not. In particular it contains information about the support tasks that are
rostered for each game. We rely on this support, without which the games cannot run smoothly, and in
some cases, if the club does not meet requirements, possibly face fines from the League. More
importantly, smooth running games ensure maximum enjoyment for all involved, especially our kids.
In the first instance, for general information, please check the Warrandyte Junior Football Club website
at www.warrandytejfc.org . It contains a wealth of information including fixtures, the latest on season
commencement in these drought conditions, and important policies and codes of conduct that the club
supports. Add it to your Favourites for easy reference. Most communication to team parents/players will
by via email or messages at training. Contact details for club officials and team coaches/managers are
also there.
TRAINING
At present, training will be held every.
Players MUST bring a drink, mouth guard and footy boots.
UNIFORMS
When you registered, your son should have been given a red WJFL jacket. Please ensure that these are
worn to (and from) each game including the Ivanhoe practice match.
Mouthguards MUST be worn at each game – no mouthguard – no game.
White shorts are to be worn for away games, and red shorts at home.
Socks/shorts should be available for sale at the Ivanhoe practice match. Please allow time ahead of the
game to purchase these, in addition to the half hour needed before the game to get ready in the change
rooms.
It is necessary that the players wear correct uniform. The club can be fined for infringements.

U11 Parent’s Information
INABILITY TO PLAY
It is very important that the coaches or team manager are informed before a game if a player cannot
play. Let us know at training or via email/phone.
GENERAL
It is important that spectators remain OUTSIDE the fence during play. We ask parents to follow the
Parents Code of Conduct. Umpires are not to be approached for any dispute, including by boundary
or goal umpires.
First Aid – while we are fortunate to have two parents very well qualified for first aid duties each game,
there is benefit in having others who can share this responsibility. If any parent is a qualified firstaider and willing to help in that role for our games, please let David Ure know. If any parent would
like to, but needs first aid training, also please let me know as the club will consider paying for the
training if you have the time.
