Family Discounts

Note that the family discount does not apply to new U/6 to U/9 players as these are already discounted, but will apply to other members of the same family not registering for the “new player” discounted fee.

If you have any problems with the online registration process, please feel free to call or email the details through to the registrar (registrar@manlyvalefc.com.au) so that we can assist, or notify FFA of any problems encountered.

 

Dual-Registration

Dual-Registration applies to girls and women who are registering to play in both the Saturday Mixed and Sunday Ladies competitions.

Full-Time Student Registration

The FNSW insurance coverage does not provide a registration discount to full-time senior students this year, so senior full-time students will be required to pay the full senior player fees.
