Working with Children Checks It is not too late to register for your WWCC if you have not already. It takes all of 10 mins and means you are able to help your Team Manager out as a volunteer on game day 💙
If you have received your WWWC, please add your number to your PlayHQ volunteer profile by following the steps below -
OR if unable to edit (PlayHQ does sadly have some user experience issues)
You will receive an email shortly if your WWCC is not linked to your PlayHQ profile, so please keep an eye out and action this ASAP. SMJFL audits of volunteers on game days will occur and penalties will apply to clubs not doing the right thing. |

Reminder: School Holidays vs Fixtures With varied school holiday lengths coming up, please cross check your holiday plans against the fixture and notify your TM if you are away. Giving them enough time to find fill-ins is welcomed!

Top 3 Pre-Game Moves for Footballers Warming up with active movements is key to preparing the body for performance and reducing injury risk. These 3 simple moves get the heart rate up and activate key muscle groups:
Start with a few regular squats, then progress into jump squats to build power. Why it works: Fires up the glutes, quads, and calves while boosting lower-body explosiveness. 2. Lateral Lunges into Lateral Lunge Hops Step side-to-side into a lunge, then add a small hop to activate balance and stability. Why it works: Opens up the hips, strengthens the adductors, and improves agility. 3. High Knees / Leg Swings / Bum Kicks Cycle through 20 seconds of each movement. Why it works: Raises the heart rate, warms up the legs, and activates hip flexors and hamstrings. Pro Tip: Keep it light, fast, and dynamic; the goal is to energise the body, not exhaust it. |
