Important: Juniors are required to attend grading to confirm team placement.  Registration without grading attendance does not confirm a team position. Juniors should contact us asap if you can’t attend grading for any reason.
secretary@bhfc.org.au
Seniors: You are not expected to attend grading, however you must contact your manager to indicate your intention to play in 2024. Seniors who have no team please contact secretary@bhfc.org.au so we can find a team for you.

Reminder: When registering dependent children under 18 years of age, each child is eligible for a rebate to their registration fees through the NSW State Government Active Kids Voucher scheme. You must obtain the Active Kids Voucher prior to registering. You will be required to redeem the voucher during the registration process, so keep it handy. The Active Kids Voucher can not be applied retrospectively to the registration once it is completed. Nor can the Active Kids Voucher be redeemed for cash. Please read the terms and conditions when applying for the voucher.

PLEASE NOTE: You need to register in and pay accordingly for the age group you intend to play rather than your chronological age. eg. If you turn 11 in 2024 but intend to play in U12, register as an U12 player, similarly players turning 7 in 2024 who wish to play in U8 should register as U8s. This applies to all players in any age eg a 17 year old who wishes to play in seniors should register as PL/AAM/ or PYL as the case may be.

There is a HFI enforced Registration cut off TBC to play Round 1. Please make sure you don’t leave registration queries til the last minute or you may miss R1. Late registrations are accepted after this date for Round 2 onwards.

REGISTRATION FAQ’s

For your convenience, please find below 19 hints and tips to help you with registration. We’ll have more FAQ for pre-season and the season proper in the weeks to come.

How do I register?

Registration is completed online. Click on the 'Play Football' banner above and select our club: Baulkham Hills Football Club.

 
Is it too early to register?

No. Now is the perfect time to register.
Registration opened January 3. Registering early let's us know your intention. This helps us create enough teams for all interested players. It also ensures that you will play in Rnd 1.

Registration is complete when online payment is made in full.

What is the deadline for registration?

To play in Rnd 1 you must be registered by Wednesday 27th March.
You can register after this date (to play from R2 onwards), but you must register by Tuesday of the week before you want to play.
If you register late, contact the registrar to check when you can play.

 
Who is eligible to register?

Boys, girls, men and ladies are all welcome to play at Baulko.
Players should be 5 years of age at the younger end of the scale.
At the opposite end of the scale, age is just a number, so if you are keen to play, join us. See if you can break Terry's record!

 
What age group do I play and register in?

Register and play in the age group that matches your age this year. eg If you turn 8 in 2024 you will play in U8. 17 yr olds and over can play in All Age competitions. 18 -21 yrs play in Youth League or Premier Youth League.
If you are 35 or older you will play in O35s. Same for 45s.

What if I play 'out of age'?

If you intend to play in a competition other than your age group, register and pay for the competition in which you will play. eg If you are 10 but want to play in U11, register and pay for U11 fees. If you are 17 but want to play Youth League, register & pay for Youth League. (Juniors are strongly encouraged to play in their age).
