It is then a requirement to forward the club via email a copy of your 2019 student transcript or similar as proof of student status. Please note that the date must be visible.

A place in a team cannot be guaranteed. If a player is not allocated to a team, a refund will be granted. Refunds for any other reason must be approved by the LCFC Board.
Approved refunds will be paid minus a processing fee; this is a minimum of $35, and is determined by the LCFC Board.
Once a player has been selected into a team and played a match scheduled under the official NSFA Competition, they will no longer be entitled to a refund due to withdrawal, injury or other circumstances.

Councils make the decision as to whether or not grounds are playable or closed due to weather conditions. If it is raining and you are unsure whether training/games are cancelled you may check the local council websites such as Lane Cove Council or phone 9911 3585 for the Lane Cove Council wet weather hotline.

LCFC will update their website based on information from NSFA and local councils. 

NSFA (Northern Suburbs Football Association) is in charge of the draw. It can be located here.
Due to wet weather and regrading throughout the season, the draw is sometimes distributed only a week or 2 in advance. Should you have any issues or concerns regarding the draw please email admin@lcfc.com.au and we can pass on your comments to NSFA for a response.
