We play in the Football Integration Development Association (FIDA )and are part of approx 22 teams participating in competition.
Season 2011 we had 47 registered players and two teams in different grades of football, this season we anticipate the same.
Our registration fee is $100 that we pay to FIDA for insurance cover. A reminder to our new players that we not only perform as professionals with pride and dignity, but we also look like professionals, so all new players will be issued with club hooded windcheaters, shorts and socks. Jumpers are provided by the club, or you may prefer to purchase your own from the club, to have as a reminder of the great times spent playing footy for the Panthers.
After a successful 2011, we are looking forward to another successful season in 2012, if you have friends that would also like to play, bring them along as well new player registrations can be taken until June 2012. Our website www.mocfcvic.org.au for more information, photos, news, etc.
