🌧️⚽ THURSDAY FIELD UPDATE | 26 JUNE ⚽🌧️

With the rain overnight and the forecast for the remainder of the day, the fields simply aren't in a condition to be used and have been closed.

Unfortunately:
❌ All training is cancelled tonight.
❌ The two games scheduled at Kurraka have been postponed.

We're continuing to keep a close eye on the forecast as we head towards the weekend. At this stage it isn't looking overly promising, but we're keeping everything crossed that we see some sunshine and can get football back underway.

We'll provide a weekend update by Friday afternoon once we've had another opportunity to assess the grounds.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.
