Registration Payments for 2019

Registration Payment 2019 With registration payments now due for this coming season, I think it’s worth letting you know a couple of things about them. Firstly, it now costs the club about $700 per player to field our teams – so significantly more than your rego fees. We are able to keep rego fees down […]

Vale – Jim Gumbleton
