U5-U18 Player of the Match Awards

U9 to U12 Kanga Cup EOI

We are currently working through the U9 to U12 Kanga Cup EOI received. Thank you for your patience.

Any questions about Kanga Cup for your age group, please direct them to your relevant registrars listed below.

Team Photos 17/6 & 18/6

Junior Team Photos will be conducted at Eastlake Gungahlin by Michael Thompson Photography (MTP), over two weeknights, Wednesday the 17th of June and Thursday the 18th of June.

Team Photo Schedule

The team schedule is tight, so there won’t be any room to simply swap to another night or time. If there is an issue with a team’s time slot, please contact your friendly registrar to see if you can swap with another team in your age group. For any individual player schedule conflicts, also contact your registrar to discuss options.

Kaleen Parking Guide Map

ACT Sportsgrounds will be a focus of parking operations during May and June across all grounds, but in particular: Kaleen, Harrison, O’Connor, and Dickson.

Patrols will occur on one weeknight a fortnight and most Saturdays and Sundays.

To assist members with finding legal and safe parking options, we have developed a Kaleen Parking Guide Map.

Road Rules: Parking

To compliment the Kaleen Parking Guide Map, we have summarised the important parking road rules applicable to suburban playing fields.
