2020 Season - A go ahead

A word from the President

To all players, coaches, parents, members and supporters,

​

Tuesday June 9 the SANFL held a meeting with all Community Football League Presidents to outline the next step of their ‘Return to Play’ plan. As of July 3 all Community Football Leagues are able to hold crowds of up to 500 people, with 80 players and staff in addition.

With the SANFL announcement, all Division 1 Presidents held a meeting with HFL President, Don Cranwell on Wednesday June 10, to discuss the recommencement of the 2020 Football season.

​

All Presidents voted unanimously to begin the season Saturday July 4. While there are a few points to discuss further with the HFL and SANFL, we are excited that footy is back! The season will comprise of a full second round of 9 rounds including a club bye, with a full final 5 team, 4 week finals series. The Grand Final will be held on Saturday September 26.

​

The HFL is currently working through a program with its best intentions to suit all clubs. Once this program becomes set and final, we will make this available to all.

​

All clubs must still abide by the strict Covid-19 rules in place. Our Committee will be working hard behind the scenes in order to keep all players, coaches and members safe.

​

Please be aware we will have more information to follow in the coming days. We will communicate information accordingly.

I would like to thank you all for your continued support and patience in this time. I look forward to seeing you all round 1!

​

Thank you,

Todd Heyer
NBUFC President
