2012 Season Information
Registration for the 2012 season
Registration will be managed in the MyFootballClub system provided by FFA. All players (juniors, squirts, seniors) and club volunteers (coaches, managers, committee members) will need to be registered in the MyFootballClub system. You can register online (our preferred approach), or you can come into the club, fill out a form and have a club official register you. This year, there will also be the option to pay your registration fees online through MyFootballClub as part of the registration process.
Attached is a guide for registering with Grange Thistle.

2012 Age Group Policy and Grading Policy
Football Queensland and Football Brisbane have made updates to their rules, which place far greater restrictions on the age groups that junior players can participate in. As far as is possible, they require players to compete in the age group determined by their year of birth. In accordance with these rules, Grange Thistle have formulated a junior age group policy.

2012 Fixtures
The following files contain the junior fixtures. The first file is from Football Brisbane and contains the fixtures for U8 to U17. The file has been sorted by Date, then by Time, and then by Venue. Please note that the fixtures can change through the season, and we advise parents and managers to check their fixtures on the Football Brisbane website each week.
