U5 to U11 Presentations this Sunday
U5 to U11 presentations are on this Sunday afternoon the 21st of September at Kaleen High School.
Just like the mornings of Kaleen Game Day, parking is competitive. With only a handful of car spots available at the school, we encourage people to park at the playing fields and nearby streets (legally of course) and walk to the High School.
Presentation schedule and parking tips are available here.

Don’t think you have enough players for a team, then head over to our Junior Summer Comp and Senior Summer Comp Facebook groups to team up with some new friends.
Kit Return 2.0
For those that couldn’t make or just plain forgot, there is another kit return this Saturday morning.
What: Team Kit Return (jerseys, balls, bibs, training equipment, bags, keys)
When: 9 am to 11 am, Saturday, 20/9/2025
Where: Kaleen Playing Fields, Birie Place, Kaleen ACT 2615
We ask that coaches/managers launder jerseys, prior to the kit return on 20/9/2025. Sniff tests will be applied to ensure compliance.
There is a Kit Return Inventory form that we request team representatives fill out prior their kit drop off to assist with counting kit items and reporting any missing items. This will help immensely with the off-season stocktake.
Please ensure that all jerseys are collected. Trophies will be withheld if a player’s designated jersey is not returned.
