What are “Player Development Squads” ?
The Canterbury District runs grassroots football as an entry point for players of all abilities. A small number of players desire to progress to the next level of football ie.. competitions run by Football NSW.

Along with players that want to increase their skills development, “Player Development Squads” are run by the association on a weekly basis for a limited number of weeks (approx 6 weeks) as extra training.

If you ‘re looking for some extra training run by professional instructors and have
been thinking about representative football then come along to one of the trial dates .
For any enquiries please call Nonda Nitis (Coaching Director) on 0420 988 799,

Round One is supposed to kick off tomorrow, Saturday 4th April, however the weather means that some, if not all, grounds may be closed. Ground closures are mandated by councils or other park owners. Here’s the list of wet weather hotlines (and the relevant parks) across the Canterbury District.

Here are links to all the parks in Canterbury District with maps and addresses. There are copies in the clubhouse as well.

MFC recommends that all coaches and managers read the CDSFA Rules 2009, then print a copy and take it with you to games.

All parents, players, coaches, managers and spectators should be aware of the zero tolerance for violence policy which explicitly prohibits behaviour which is unsportsmanlike or “..is disrespectful or abusive of any match official or of their decisions.” Any complaint should be made quietly to a ground or club official, not shouted from the sidelines.
