JUNIOR CLUB ADMINISTRATOR ROLE
The aim of this handbook is to help junior club administration navigate their way through all
aspects of junior football within Football West.
It will go through the different ages and levels of junior football outside of the NPL, how to
enter teams, make requests for current teams, and other various administrative aspects.
The club administrator’s role is to be the main point of contact for all junior matters within
your club. This includes sending any fixture changes, complaints, processing team entries,
and retuning forms requested by Football West amongst other things.
This handbook will provide a good resource as well as provide assistance when bringing in
other club administrators to assist in junior matters.
JUNIOR FOOTBALL OVERVIEW
There are three main levels of junior football within the Football West competitions: NPL
WA, MiniRoos and Community. This handbook will focus on MiniRoos and Community
Junior Football.

Australia (FFA). The ages of the children within MiniRoos can be from four up to 12.

REGISTRATIONS
PLAY FOOTBALL
Play Football (formally known as MyFootballClub) is the website that is used for
registrations for referees, players or coaches. Club administrators will use this site to set up
fee packages that players will register to. Whether the person is a first timer or a returning
player, they must register to the relevant club on Play Football each year.
Most clubs will have a dedicated registrar and the club will appoint approved members to
access their registration portal. However, as the dedicated junior representative it is
important that you are aware of the guidelines around registrations to ensure you can
communicate effectively with your coaches, managers, parents and players.
4
COMMUNITY JUNIOR FOOTBALL
Prior to the season starting ensure that the registrar has provided either yourself or the
managers a copy of their team’s registration information. This can be done by running a
report in MyFootballClub and emailing a PDF version to the team managers. It is a
competition rule that if asked, a team manager must be able to provide their players’
registration information. It is also important to ensure that all players (not required for 6s –
12s) have a photo on their registration profile.

COMMUNITY JUNIOR FOOTBALL
Community Junior Football
13S TO 15S
Divisions in the 13, 14 and 15 age groups are broken down into three parts:
Metropolitan League, North League and South League.

The Metropolitan League is the highest standard of junior football outside of the NPLWA
Juniors. This consists of three divisions involving teams from across the Perth
metropolitan area. Teams in this league can be as far south as Australind and as far north
as Yanchep.

COMMUNITY JUNIOR FOOTBALL
16S AND 18S
There is no separation by north and south in the 16s and 18s age groups. The number of
divisions within these age groups will depend on how many teams have been entered into
the competition by the clubs each year.
Division 1 Division 2 Division 3 Division 4 Divison 5 Division 6
JUNIOR GIRLS LEAGUE
The Junior Girls League will consist of 14, 16, and 18 age groups. The number of divisions in
each age group will depend on how many teams have been entered into that age group. The
Girls League is not separated by north and south and therefore clubs from all parts of Perth
will be able to play against each other.

COMMUNITY JUNIOR FOOTBALL
JUNIOR AND GIRLS CUP
The Junior Cup is a competition that runs during the regular season. The cup competition is
played on Saturday while the regular season competition is played on Sunday.
It is compulsory for NPLWA, junior and girls leagues division one teams to compete.
However for all other divisions, clubs have the choice if they would like to compete. This can
be done by returning a Junior Cup expression of interest form that Football West will send
to clubs.
The Cup fixtures are drawn out by Football West and uploaded onto the fixtures. You can
see all the scheduled dates for the cup draw on the season calendar. Football West will
email clubs as soon as each round has been drawn and fixtures are ready to be released on
the website.
It is important to note that players may only play for ONE team throughout the Cup. If a
player plays regularly for their 13s division one team in the regular season, but plays for the
clubs 13 division three team in a preliminary cup game, that player is “Cup Tied” to the 13
division three team for the remainder of the Cup. If that player is proven to have played for
another team during the Cup competition, the game he/she played in will be deemed a
forfeit and the team removed from the Cup competition.

COMMUNITY JUNIOR FOOTBALL
FINALS
There are two types of final series: the Top Four Finals and the Junior Cup Finals.
TOP FOUR FINALS
In both the junior and girls league there will be a Top Four Finals series whereby the top four
teams from each group play each other. The Top Four Final series begins with two semi-
finals in each age group and finishes with one final in each age group. The format of the
semi-finals is as follows: 1st place will play 4th place and 2nd place will play 3rd place.
To qualify for the Top Four Finals, all players must have played 75% of matches from June 30
with their current team. It is the responsibility of each team and/or manager to keep a
record of the matches played by each player to ensure they meet this criterion.
If a player within a team has not played 75% of games due to an injury or has been absent
through travel, the club will be able to apply for an exemption through Football West. To
apply for an exemption the player must be able to prove that he or she was away or injured
by providing relevant documentation. (Finals exemption forms can be found on
footballwest.com.au)
It is important to note that if it is proved that a player has played or has been listed on a
match card without having played 75% of matches from June 30, the game will be deemed a
forfeit.
Hosting Top Four Finals
Clubs are encouraged to apply to host Top Four Semi Final and Final, this can be done via an
online submission form that Football West will send to clubs.
Helpful Hints
• Ask your team managers to take a photo of their match card each round to help
keep track of their players and how many games they have played.
• If a team needs an exemption for medical purposes please send in the
documentation as soon as possible to ensure that the exemption can be granted
with plenty of notice.

football. The Game Leader should always be enthusiastic and approachable.

remember, most importantly that it is about teaching and helping kids learn and have fun
while playing football.

our development officers to come out to your club and run a grassroots information session.
14GENERAL COMPETITION INFORMATION
TEAM NOMINATION AND ALLOCATIONS
The team nomination and allocation begin at the end of the season when Football West
begins the relegation and promotion process. Typically, the top two teams will be promoted
and the bottom two will be relegated. However, if Football West feel the makeup of the
divisions need to be altered they may promote or relegate further teams. After Football
West have finished the promotion and relegation process a first allocation draft will be sent
out to clubs during November and/or December. During this time, clubs will also be asked to
return a team nomination form which outlines all the draft allocations for the next season.
On the form clubs are asked to either accept or reject the allocations or request changes.
Clubs will have a minimum of a month to return these forms. Once the deadline has passed

allocations. It is from this point that the sports administration program SportsTG will open
for clubs to enter their MiniRoos and 12s teams, including confirming the updated junior
allocation information. SportsTG will be open for clubs to enter their information for
approximately a month. Once the SportsTG closes Football West will then begin the fixturing
process. Please be mindful that divisions will change and the process can be quite lengthy.

commences to request a change a club official must fill out the online submission form . It is
