The BDFC Summer Football Competition offers an exciting opportunity for young players to stay active and enjoy the game throughout the warmer months. The competition is held at The Rozelle Parklands Sporting Fields and is open to both U7–U12 Mixed and Girls-only teams.
For the U7–U8 age groups, the focus is on enjoyment, participation, and skill development (these divisions do not include finals.but 8 rounds of matches). For the U9–U12 age groups, the final round (Round 8) will feature age-based finals between the top two teams of each competition.
Training is managed independently by each team, as BDFC does not currently provide training venues or organised sessions for this competition. We are however looking at options to book a venue for team training pending summer allocations.
The Junior Summer Competition offers an excellent opportunity for young players to continue their football journey in a supportive, community-focused environment!

DO NOT use your AKV when registering
Training is entirely up to the team. We do not provide a training venue or service for this competition.
For insurance reasons, it is mandatory for each player within the team to be individually registered for Summer Football through the nominated registration system. The link to register is below (once available). Do not register until an individual has a confirmed team to join and the associated team code (used during registration).
For players wishing to use their Active Kids Voucher for the Summer Football registration, the following process must be followed:
Each parent/carer must send their child’s Active Kids voucher details to their Team Manager. This includes the Child’s Name, Date of Birth, and Voucher Number EXACTLY as they appear on the Active Kids Voucher. Once all requests have been received the Team Manager can fill out the Active Kids form. BDFC will then redeem the vouchers and, once funds have been received, will refund to the Team Manager for distribution.
The summer competition is setup for players who organise their own teams to play together. At times, some teams may require extra players or there are enough players in the same age group looking to join a team.

We cannot guarantee that we can find your child a team to join. We will contact you if we have an available team.
