Terms & Conditions
By registering with the Grange Thistle Soccer Club, the player or player's Parent or guardian (if player is under 18 years of age as at 1 January 2021) is becoming a Member of the Grange Thistle Soccer Club, and hence must comply with the constitution, rules and regulations of the Club and its governing associations.
For the benefit of clarity in relation to Club voting rights and membership, only one parent or guardian listed in their first junior player registration is deemed to have Full Membership of the Club, which is inclusive in this registration. Should the other parent or guardian also wish to become a Full Member of the Club, they will need to register separately as a Volunteer (Full Member) and pay the appropriate Fee. Alternatively, they may be listed as the second contact in My Football Club and will be automatically deemed an Associate Member which has no voting rights under the Club Constitution.
A player's registration cannot be activated until registration fees have been paid in full and, in the case where it is a junior player's first season with the Grange Thistle Soccer Club, the player's proof of age has been viewed by one of the Club's Board, Committee members or their nominated delegate. Divisional age players (U12 to U16) most also upload a suitable passport style photo for identification purposes in their FFA registration details.
If a player chooses to cancel their registration before the season commences, the Club will refund the registration fee paid (less an amount of up to $250 administration fee, determined on a case by case basis). There is no refund once the season commences or registration is closed.
