FFA CUP Update

FFA CUP UPDATE

After a hard fought comeback, Rovers defeated Gymea United 3-1 to progress to the 4th Round of the FFA Cup.

Rovers were down 1-0 at half time after conceding a goal 1 min before half time. Then, as fate would have it, Rovers equalised 1 min before full time to take match into Extra time.

By this stage, Rovers had all the momentum and after a penalty and goal, finshed the game off with a well deserved 3-1 victory.

After the team belted out the team victory song we now look forward to the challenge in the next round. # Magicofthecup

The updated grading sessions for various age groups are shown below for this weekend.

Please note, all players must be registered and paid in full to be eligible for grading with Rovers and this is our final weekend available to complete grading.

IMPORTANT NOTE – WOMENS FOOTBALL:

Where girls/women’s teams in the Sunday competition from under 8 to U18 have numbers sufficient to fill one team, grading will not be required. Girl’s participants will be notified via the email and our website prior to grading commencement.

Arrival Time: Please arrive 30 minutes before the scheduled start time for your age group for grading registration and team organisation.

Location and Meeting Point: Meadowbank Park, L.H.Waud and field 9. These fields are located at the river end of the park next to the netball courts and ERNA Building highlighted in yellow on the Meadowbank park map.

What to Bring:

SPECIAL NOTE TO PARENTS

Parents are expected to stay for the duration of the session in the event it is cancelled due to weather or other activity.

Parents are expected to remain outside of the grading area at all times. If you have concerns please speak to any of the Rovers officials outside the fields of play. We request that you refrain from giving instructions to your child or any other player whilst they are on the field during grading sessions.

For all teams from U8 to U11 2020, every effort will be made to keep teams in roughly the same teams as per the previous season. Please remember this is predicated on the number of returning players as we attempt to balance team numbers across the age groups.

The Club will make every attempt to email you but PLEASE also check our website and social media announcements.
