Lane Cove FC, a community club playing in the Northern Suburbs Football Association region, with over 900 registered players, is seeking a coach for its premier league squad for the 2018 season.  With first-class facilities at its home ground at Blackman Park,  featuring two full-size artificial pitches the Club offers a challenging but friendly environment.  We are seeking a coach who has as a minimum a “C” Licence with FFA and who is keen to take on the challenge of building a squad for now and the future.  We are looking for someone who can build the trust of the players, improve their technical ability and bring the best out of them on the pitch.  The club has a regular entry in the FFA Cup qualifying rounds.  The Club will pay a fee for the service in line with market rates.  If interested please contact Francis Child, LCFC President on 0416 113200 or apply via email at admin@lcfc.com.au

Thank you to all attendees of the combined Senior Presentation Night last Saturday. There was representation across every age group: Womens All Age, Mens All Age, Over 35s and Over 45s. It was fantastic to see everyone together celebrating as a Club.

Does your child love playing football? 

Trials for the 2018 St Michaels FC and Lane Cove FC Development Squads will be held on two consecutive Thursdays, 16th and 23rd of November 2017!

Development Squads are for the more enthusiastic and focused players who want to develop their skills with other kids who are of a similar skill level.

Starting in February 2018, your child will train twice a week with a dedicated professional coach on Monday and Thursday afternoons at Blackman Park.

Trials will be held on Thursday, 16^th November AND Thursday, 23^rd November 2017 – Players need to attend BOTH Days. Age groups are for boys and girls and represent your child's 2018 age group:

• Session 1: 3:45pm to 5:15pm – for U8, U9, U10
• Session 2: 5:00pm to 6:30pm – for U11 and above

Please click here to enrol in the trials (free of charge). For further information about development squads, please see our website or get in touch with us via email.

Final LCFC competition match results for the 2017 season! Please see the results for those teams that played over the weekend. Congratulations to all teams on another wonderful season and good luck to those competing at gala day this weekend!

Please see weekend match results below:

Will your child be aged between U8 to U14 next season (2018) and loves football?

Come and try a free, no obligation development squad session at Blackman Park on Thursday 10th of August to see if your child likes the structured and fun development squad training.
What is the development squad?

• teams train twice a week (Mondays and Thursdays) at Blackman Park with a professional coach from February to August
• the same coach attends the usual NSFA competition matches with the team to ensure the team plays with the strategies they learnt at training
• the focus is on playing good football and being a good sport (rather than winning, although, when you play good football, winning often follows)

To enter the squads, your child will need to trial (held in November) and teams will be formed on your child's ability & temperament, not on friend groups.

Try it Out Day:  Thursday 10 August 17 at Blackman Park (Astroturf)

• 5-6pm: U8-U9s (2018 age groups)
• 6-7pm: U10s and above (2018 age groups).

Lane Cove FC hosted it's first ever Trivia Night on Saturday 29th of July at the Lane Cove Golf Club.

The night was a huge success with over 100 people in attendance, representing LCFC teams from Under 6's to Over 45s. We would like to thank everyone who attended the evening and everyone who helped make the night happen. Special thanks to the Lane Cove Golf Club, Crust Pizza, Pan Pacific Hotels, Brokenwood Wines, P&G and the LCFC Committee. All profits raised on the night will go back to LCFC.

Congratulations to the Mens All Age Division 3A team who took out first prize on the night. 

We are already planning an even bigger and better Trivia Night for 2018. Who will take out the title?

The Lane Cove Development Squad sent an U11 team down to frosty Canberra in the first week of July to compete in the Kanga Cup, the largest junior soccer tournament in the southern hemisphere. There were teams competing from all over ACT, NSW, WA, Qld and Victoria as well as New Zealand, Korea and Thailand.

The tournament began with an Opening Ceremony at the Australian Institute of Sport on Sunday 2 July and followed with 5 days of soccer.

While the team loved the soccer, they also visited Questacon, the War Memorial, and went ice skating at an outdoor rink in the city!

The Lane Cove U11 team played extremely well to finish in the top 4 teams of the 24 in their age group. Come on 2018!
