New Spring touch footy season

The new competition starts in August

Peninsula Touch Association will launch its new Spring touch football competition at the end of August at McEvoy Oval, Umina Beach.

In response to member feedback around the season schedule, Peninsula Touch is trialling a change to season dates that will see the traditional Summer competition replaced with a Spring competition.

The new Spring format with commence on August 28 and will wrap-up on November 27, prior to the busy Christmas period.

Peninsula Touch Association President Rod Dillon said the new Spring competition would see a continuous 12-week competition that would finish well before Christmas.

“The new structure eliminates the competition pause that previously occurred over the holiday period,” he said.

“What this also means is that we will now run an Autumn competition from February to May in 2025 and avoid the cold winter weather that is becoming unpopular with members.

“While these are significant changes, they address issues raised by our members, so we trust that the changes will be supported through team registration.”

Peninsula Touch operates on Wednesday nights from 6pm at McEvoy Oval, Umina Beach, and offers competitive and social touch football for a wide range of ages and abilities.

Divisions include women’s, mixed and open divisions (divisions one to five) for players from 12 years of age and older.
