There is much uncertainty until all the team sheets are in, but at press time, January 2010 ...

Competition starts the weekend of 10/11 April 2010, which is the middle weekend of the school holidays – keep this in mind with planning! On Sunday 25 April – Anzac Day – no games will be played before 12 noon.

June long weekend is 12th & 13th: No scheduled rounds for non-competitive teams, but the weekend will be used for catch-up games, any Anzac Day games not played, plus round 17 for competitive ages.

After Round 11 (26/27 June), eleven or twelve team comps will split in two.

The middle weekend of the July school holidays (10th/11th) there will be no scheduled rounds for non-competitive teams, but there could be catch-up games for competitive ages if needed.

Updates will be posted here as they come to hand.

Under 6 and Under 7 - will play small-sided games - 4 a side on a 30m x 20m field. Most Saints games will be played intra-club at King George with occasional gala days against other clubs.

Under 8 and Under 9 - will play 7 a side (goalie + 6) on a 40m x 30m field in a round robin format (ie. playing against different clubs at different venues each week, with no publish of results) - same as U8 in 2009.

Under 10 and Under 11 - will play 9 a side (goalie + 8) on a 60m x 40m field. Under 10s and Under 11s will play in a competitive format (home and away games, with semis and finals) - same as U10s in 2009.

Under 12 and up - 11 a side on a full sized field in competitive home and away games, with semis and finals. PLEASE NOTE that U12s will play on a Sunday this season, together with U13 to U21 boys, and all-girls and women’s teams.

Junior competitive divisions will consist of 12 teams (where possible), with each team playing the other once (11 rounds), then the division will be split into A (top 6) and B (bottom 6) grades. The 6 teams in each grade will then play each other once (5 rounds) followed by a full semi-final series ... weather permitting! More games for all.

Women and Girls - CDSFA are hoping to also have enough teams to form an Over 30 Women’s competition, with some concessional rules. Leichhardt Saints are planning to form an Over30 Women’s team, and also a young All-Age Women’s team again.
