NARRABEEN FOOTBALL CLUB A section of Narrabeen Youth Club Inc. Correspondence to PO Box 226 Narrabeen 2101 Registered Charitable Organisation YO4364-38 ABN 91 603 223 428 2015 Football Season Welcome to the 2015 football season. The committee of Narrabeen Football Club hope you had an enjoyable and safe Christmas and New Year break. For our returning players we look forward to the continuation of the Narrabeen spirit and the involvement of family and friends as fellow players, coaches, managers, volunteers and supporters. th With the important milestone of the Clubs 50 year there will be for this coming year only, a modern version of the clubs original 1965 playing kit to be worn as in the picture below and with celebrations to be organised for Sunday 3rd May at the fields and in the Ted Blackwood Hall. With positive growth in numbers at the club in 2014 from 777 members to 908 there is the possibility of breaking 1000 in 2015 with the Warriewood area continuing to develop. We need more volunteers to help the 2015 season run smoothly. Our club is run by volunteers and as we all know many hands make light work. The club actively needs assistance by players or their families to keep the club working well into the future. We are seeking the following for the 2015 season; Treasurer, Newsletter Editor and Junior Equipment Co-ordinator. So if you are able to help out, please get in touch with our club Secretary, Jake Downs. Bear in mind that filling a committee position entitles that person – or a member of their family – to a free registration for the season. If you are unable to take up a committee position, some activities such as registration and grading require one-off assistance and extra hands are always welcome. For further information on any of the roles or if you can help out in some way please contact Jake. NFC is a club for all levels of ability and enthusiasm. From our Premier League teams, right down to Under 6s, we have the facilities to field teams to cater for all requirements. We are a proud section of Narrabeen Youth Club. Narrabeen FC has a new website at www.narrabeenfc.com.au Please check here often for updates on what is happening within the Club and how our teams are faring.
