A MESSAGE FOR OUR MEMBERS

Avalon Soccer Club is a 100% volunteer run club, trying to provide the best possible experience for over 1200 members.
We are at that time of the year where grading results are handed down, teams are formed and divisions selected. All of these undertakings – and many more – are done by volunteer age coordinators, registrars and VPs. It’s not an easy job and it’s always done with the best intentions of the club and the players at heart, but occasionally difficult decisions have to be made.
Whilst there may be disappointment over a particular team placement or division allocation, it’s important to not lose sight of why we play football.
Abusing our club volunteers, making unrealistic demands of them, or delivering ultimatums is not on. They are doing this in their own time for your child.
We are here to serve every member of our incredible community, and offer them the best possible

2023 GRADING UPDATE

We have changed the planned timings for U16/W16 this weekend. Please check carefully.

Our vision is to develop every player’s skill technically, tactically and physically. Our club also aims to equip our players with the vital life skills such as commitment, discipline, respect and perseverance. These qualities will assist our young footballers in all aspects of life.

Our aim is to provide an opportunity for people to participate in a community club in a safe, friendly and family-oriented environment. Grading forms an important step in achieving

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

To all our Avalon Soccer Club members, I hope everyone is safe and well, and enjoying the off-season.
On the back of two challenging years of Covid, this year we had to endure the wettest football season that I could remember. Everyone involved with the club and the community have been very resilient and patient. We are all hoping for a bigger, better and dryer 2023!
Now that the curtains have closed on our 2022 football season, I wanted to extend a thank you to our fantastic managers, knowledgeable coaches, generous sponsors, tireless volunteers and the positive and determined attitude of our players. From our juniors to our senior teams and everyone in between, the attitude, mindset and competitive spirit within our Avalon community has been second to none.

This has been an incredibly challenging time for everyone in the community and everyone involved with the club. We all hoped that restrictions would ease to the point that we’d be able to complete the season. However it was not to be.
As the curtains close on our 2021 season I wanted to extend a thank you to our fantastic managers, knowledgeable coaches, generous sponsors, tireless volunteers and the positive and determined attitude of our players. From our juniors to our senior teams and everyone in between, the attitude, mindset and competitive spirit within our Avalon community has been second to none.
