FAQ'S

Is registration by age?  Ie: U7’s?
No – registration is by school year group only.

Can my child play in a different year group?
It is recommended that players are enrolled in their school Year. Playing down a year group is not permitted, playing up (one year only) is permitted.

Do the teams have to be single sex or mixed?
Teams can be made up of all boys, all girls or mixed.
No minimum ratios required.  ie: can be all one sex, can be 7 boys, 2 girls etc.  It is at the Manager’s discretion.
Teams will all play in their designated school year group.

My child doesn’t have a team, can I still register them?
Registrations must be team based. However we want to include everyone so if you are an individual without a team, email the Summer Touch team and they will make every effort to put you in touch with teams looking for players. Please include;

Player Name
School Name
School Year

My team is short on players?
If you form a team and are short of players, please email us with your team name and requirements.  MJRC will make every effort to put you in touch with individuals looking for a team, but takes no responsibility to finalise teams.

Why do I need 9 players?
Over the last 3 years we have seen a pattern where those with less than 9 players always seem to struggle fielding some weeks - someone is sick, gets too much homework or (tap wood) gets injured, so that’s why 9 is the lucky number.  You have two reserves in your back pocket. If you only have 7 players let us know and we can team you up with some individual players looking for a team.

What does my child wear to play?
Any comfortable active wear and trainers (no football boots allowed) and we advise against bare feet for safety reasons.

You can go in your sports school shirt or if you love getting dressed up and want to get into the spirit grab some team t-shirts.   

Headgear and mouthguard are not required. No football boots are to be worn, sneakers are fine.

Do you need to know how to play?
There is no grading, and we welcome all abilities. It’s a FUN competition.  We’re not playing for sheep stations, just a bag of snakes!

Do we need a Team Manager?
Yes, teams will not be able to be registered without a Team Manager. All teams are to be formed and the team fees to be paid by the team manager.
The Team Manager will be our sole point of contact for all comms and information.
Team substitutions on game day are to be managed by the Team Manager.

When will the draw be sent to us?
We will aim to get the draw out to all teams by the Manager’s Night, so you know exactly when you’re playing and who for the season.

Any updates will be posted to the website.  You will not be notified each week.

Will there be a food offering available on Touch nights?
Yes, the best BBQ in town will be serving dinner at Rawson on Tuesday and Thursday nights, and the canteen will be pumping.

Can I bring my dog along?
No sorry, Mosman Council doesn't allow dogs on the oval.  

Fine Print (the stuff you are meant to read…)
Only Team payments of $1035+ with 9 players (or special exception) who have all registered will be accepted into the draw. If you need to confirm player's names later please put TBC. Additional player’s payment link will be sent to you if you wish to add more.  Each player is $115.

Family & Friends team will be 10 people and you will only pay for 5 adults, registered kids will be free.  Total $575.

For Insurance purposes each individual player needs to fill in an Individual Player Registration Form within 48hrs.
Non-registered players are not covered by insurance and therefore cannot play.  You can not have a "fill in" that's not registered.
Active Kids Vouchers are not able to be used.
No refunds on registrations.
MJRC are unable to form or manage teams.
MJRC makes no guarantees that there will be teams looking for players, or individuals looking for teams.
