Kemps Creek United Soccer Club

NOTE TO ALL.

DUE TO STORM DAMAGE AT BILL ANDERSON RESERVE ALL SEMI FINAL GAMES SCHEDULED FOR THIS WEEKEND HAVE BEEN TRANSFERRED TO HOXTON PARK RESERVE.

GAME TIMES UNCHANGED.

Hi All,

After a very indifferent year, we are nearing the end of the season, much to the relief of some and disappointment to others.

The past few weeks have been quite challenging for many teams with multiple matches and restricted training space at our ground.

The Club has hosted more than 35 night fixtures at Bill Anderson Reserve, an enormous volume resulting from a shortened season.

As a Committee, we understand this has been quite inconvenient at times, but our goal was to try and get as many of your matches as possible, if not all, played rather than forfeited.

We almost got there.

We have largely received positive feedback and we thank all teams for your understanding and co-operation during the many congested training nights and heavy match schedule.

Thank you also to Maggie, Gabi and Scott(y) for the many nights they have spent serving in the Canteen over the past few weeks.

Enjoy the final few matches and we wish everyone well.

May we take this opportunity to remind you all to please continue observing and adhering to all Covid-19 regulations that remain in place at all grounds.

The pandemic is still not over, we have been very fortunate to play out the season, let’s not ruin our efforts now.

Regards –Club Committee KEMPS CREEK UNITED SOCCER CLUB

After an inspection of the fields training can recommence.

Please note the fields are still retaining a large amount of water and teams may be relocated for safety.

No use of the fields within the 18 yard boxes is mandatory.

Please respect the conditions .

Good Morning all.
Unfortunately due to overnight rainfall at Bill Anderson reserve the Committee has made the decision to close the fields.

Updates on tomorrow will be advised as available.

Good afternoon all,

After an inspection of the playing fields at Bill Anderson Reserve and irrespective of Council’s decision later today, the Club Committee has decided the fields are still unplayable and therefore remain closed to all activities.

Hello all,
By now you would all have had time to read the prior message from Football NSW.

We acknowledge the efforts being put in by the Football Governing Bodies and all Government departments in the fight against COVID-19 however to win this battle we need to work together but apart by complying with social distancing.

As a club the Committee is working hard to keep you safe in our space so please abide by the rules.

Please ensure the following protocols are being met:

Social distancing of 1.5m is adhered to at all times.

*Do not turn up earlier than 30 minutes prior to kick-off to matches, and 15 minutes before training.
*Players to attend matches and training in full uniform and ready to play.
*Parents to remain in their vehicles during training nights – no congregating around the Clubhouse.

*Hand sanitizers are stationed at various points around the Fields and Clubhouse at Bill Anderson Reserve, please use them.

KEMPS CREEK UNITED COMMITTEE

It has been advised today that 3 schools in the Sydney basin have been closed due to identified cases of COVID-19.

Two of those schools are within our district,

Freeman Catholic College and

Mary Immaculate Catholic Primary School.

Football NSW have today contacted NSW Health regarding players who attend these schools and have been advised as follows:

NSW Health has completed contact tracing at these schools and has identified students who are “close contacts”;

Students identified by NSW Health as “close contacts” have been advised by NSW Health to self-isolate and get tested;

Students and families at Mary Immaculate Primary School in Stage 3 who are currently self-isolating have been advised to continue isolating up to and including 7 August 2020;

All other students are required to monitor for symptoms and self-isolate and get tested if they become symptomatic.

Therefore:

# Any players who attend the above two schools who have been identified as “close contacts” and are self-isolating are not permitted to participate in football until they are no longer required by NSW Health to self-isolate;

# The teams that players who attend the above schools usually play in can continue to participate in football as usual, minus any players who are self-isolating;

#All players who attend the above schools can continue to participate in football as usual, except those who are required to self-isolate;

# Players who are siblings of students in self-isolation are permitted to continue to participate in football as usual, unless advised by NSW Health to also self-isolate; and

# All players should continue to monitor for symptoms and self-isolate and get tested if they become symptomatic.

Football NSW will continue to provide updated information and resources at http://www.footballnsw.com.au/covid-19-information/

Good afternoon all

After a thorough inspection of Bill Anderson Reserve a decision has been made to close the fields and suspend training for the remainder of the week. (Friday 361/07/20)

Many factors were taken into consideration in making this decision first and foremost player safety due to the condition of the fields.

We will keep you updated about the field availability for the weekend closer to that time.

Thank you KCUSC Committee
