Playing Colours
All registered teams will be allocated a colour upon registration to wear as your t-shirt (K-mart and Big W do very cheap t-shirts)
To secure your team you need a TEAM MANAGER
The Team Manager will be responsible for registering their team and ensuring payment. They will also be our point of communication for the season and will be given our contact details. They will also be responsible for managing fair substitutions throughout the game if necessary and keeping score each game.
What Managers will need to do to register teams:
Fill in the registration form for your team ASAP to secure your team’s spot in the competition – https://forms.gle/jn6FWLr7aLWx2Fau7
You will need to fill in each individual players following information at the time of registration:
- Name of player
- School of player
- Email of player’s guardian
Then the Manager will need to deposit the entire team’s registration payment into the MJRC bank account to secure their spot in their division.
Please note you will have 48hrs to pay your team’s full amount in one deposit, otherwise we will open your spot in the competition to other teams.
PLEASE DO NOT PAY INDIVIDUALLY.
You will receive the draw by the 4th October for the season.

FAQ’s
Is registration by age? Ie: U7’s?
No – registration is by school year group only.
Can my child play in a different year group?
It is recommended that players are enrolled in their school Year. Playing down a year group is not permitted, playing up (one year only) is permitted.
Do the teams have to be single sex or mixed?
Teams can be made up of all boys, all girls or mixed.
No minimum ratios required. ie: can be all one sex, can be 7 boys, 1 girl etc. It is at the Managers discretion.
Teams will all play in their designated school year group.
My child doesn’t have a team, can I still register them?
Registrations must be team based. However we want to include everyone so if you are an individual without a team, email the Summer Touch team and they will make every effort to put you in touch with teams looking for players.
Player Name
School Name
School Year
My team is short on players?
If you form a team and are short of players, please email us with your team name and requirements. MJRC will make every effort to put you in touch with individuals looking for a team, but takes no responsibility to finalise teams.
What does my child wear to play?
Any comfortable active wear and trainers (no football boots allowed). Your team will allocate a colour once registrations have closed. We suggest purchasing team tees from somewhere like K-Mart or Big W.
Headgear and mouthguard are not required.
All children must bring their own drink bottle.
Do you need to know how to play?
There is no grading, and we welcome all abilities.
Do we need a Team Manager?
Yes, teams will not be able to be registered without a Team Manager. All teams are to be formed and the team fees to be paid by the team manager.
The Team Manager will be our sole point of contact for all comms and information.
Team substitutions on game day are to be managed by the team manager.
When will the draw be sent to us?
We will aim to get the draw out to all teams by October 4th, so you know exactly when you’re playing and who!

Yes, we will lighten the dinner load on Touch nights. The BBQ at Rawson will be back, and the canteen will be pumping.
