Last Day for Registrations
The last day for player registrations for the 2021 season is Sunday the 30th of May.
We can offer a discount for registrations into teams that may be short on player numbers so please reach out to me (registrar@leichhardtsaints.com) if you would like to find out more information.

DRIBL Compliance - Fines now being issued by the CDSFA
For Under 8 and older teams please be aware that the CDSFA is now auditing club's compliance with the match-day process in DRIBL and we have already received a number of fines.

In addition to entering the score after the game the CDSFA will be looking into the following 3 points:

1. Teams not Submitted prior to kick-off
2. Opposition Teams not Confirmed by our club
3. Whether or not a Team Official is marked as participating (available) - we need at least one marked as available for every game.

Overall, we have gotten onboard with the new process very well and I thank you all for this. However, every week there are still a number of teams (usually different) who are not entering their respective scores following the end of the game. From the feedback we have received, we believe the main problem may be as follows: 
When the opposition team enters the score first, whatever score they enter will be auto-filled in when you go to enter the score. We believe some Managers interpret this as the score has already been entered. This is not the case. You still have to either confirm the score or enter a new one by pressing the "save" button.

Ground Official Reminder
The CDSFA has advised clubs that some teams have not had a Ground Official at games:
For any home games or games at neutral venues please ensure someone is assigned as a Ground Official and wears the Orange Vest.
If you need to arrange to collect a Ground Official vest please email Manning at equipment@leichhardtsaints.com

For Coaches and Managers, please ensure you wear the yellow Team Official vest if you are in the technical area.
Referees have been instructed not to start games if there is anyone in the technical area without a vest.

Changes to the Draw (Under 8 & Older)
We have also been advised that with team regradings, wet weather and field closures the draw can be changed at late notice so we recommend everyone check the draw (https://cdsfa.dribl.com/) frequently.
A reminder that if there has been rain before games that the best place to check if your game is going ahead is the CDSFA wet weather page -(https://www.footballcanterbury.com.au/gameday/wetweather/)
