End of Season Dates Per Grade
Centennial Park - junior Competition
Grades 4-9
As recently communicated to members, the Centennial Park Junior Competition has been extended to Saturday 5 September.
As a result of back-to-back National Cup semi-final wins over the weekend, our Mini World Cup volunteers — our Women’s and Men’s First Team players — are now involved in a historic Cup Final double-header at One Stadium on Saturday 5 September (we would love to see you and the family there!). We can therefore confirm that the Mini World Cup will take place on Saturday 29 August.
An additional round of regular Junior fixtures will then take place on the final date of the competition, Saturday 5 September.
