Tarragindi Tigers Football Club

In 2020, Tarragindi Tigers will continue with a supervising development coach for the U6 (born 2014) and U7 (2013) age groups. The supervising development coach will be able to provide the Volunteer Team Coaches with advice and coaching drills. A volunteer game leader / coach is required for all MiniRoos teams. The volunteer parent will take the team on game days and on training days. All coaches will be provided with opportunities to gain the relevant coaching qualifications for this age group. Each team will also need to appoint a Volunteer Team Manager.

In 2020 TTFC schedule in house games for our U6 (born 2014) and U7 teams (born 2013).  The draw will be released once the teams are confirmed.

This means that these players play against other TTFC teams during these early stages of development. Continuing in 2020, TTFC's U6/7 games will be played on Saturday mornings from 8.00am to 9.00am at our Esher Street fields.

These are Small Sided Football (SSF) games, played 4v4 with no goalkeepers at this level.  More information about the National Playing Formats and Rules for MiniRoos (rules, field size, etc) can be found here

These age groups start home and away fixtures travelling to other local clubs in Football Brisbane scheduled games to test their skills in a broader environment. In 2020, home games will be played at our Esher Street fields.  Age groups are as follows: U8 (born 2012) U9 (born 2011) U10 (born 2010) U11 (born 2009)

U8 and U9 teams play 7v7, including a goalkeeper for the first time.

U10 and U11 teams play 9v9, including a goalkeeper.

"Komodo Dragons"

It is TTFC's policy to grade players in the U9, U10 and U11 age groups.

Players deemed suitable will be selected into a "Komodo Dragon" team for each age group.  Komodo teams are coached by suitably qualified individuals and overseen by the club's Football Director. Komodo players incur a coaching levy in addition to their registration fee. For further information on the Komodo’s program please click here.

When available Club Referees are appointed U8 to U11 age group games.

Training sessions and games are not to be treated as free baby-sitting services.  Whilst all coaches have a blue card (as and if required by law), and have taken on a role of coaching the children, players are the sole responsibility of the parent.  NO child is to be left in the care and supervision of a coach. In times of sudden wet weather cancellations mid-training, it is distressing for both coach and child when a parent is not present and is not able to be contacted immediately.  Many teams, via the manager, create a team contact list, in order for busy parents to car-pool or help with supervision.  This is up to the team and parents, and is to remain strictly within the team – no contact details are to be given without consent.

Parents, as with players and coaches, are required to adhere to the codes of conduct.

Registration opens 8 January 2020.

TTFC is a community club run by volunteers. We require your support in a variety of ways so we can continue to keep kicking goals together. There are a number of ways in which you can help and every little bit counts – various volunteer roles including; team manager, team coach, canteen duty, BBQ duty, and working bees. The Committee meets once a month for a couple of hours and is always looking for anyone who would have an interest in the future development of the club. We are always looking for individuals who may have time to help organise activities at the club. Some of the currently vacant positions can be found here. If your interested in assisting with an occupied position please let us know we are sure they wouldn't mind some help.

Please contact the Chairman on chairman@tarraginditigers.com.au if you can help.

TRAINING DAYS |

When there are rainy days, the committee analyses both Esher St 2 and HPSHS 3 to evaluate if there has been enough drainage, as well as player safety during training. 

TTFC asks for your patience on wet weather days up until 3:30-4:00pm when decisions will be decided. 

When fields are closed and training is cancelled, it is because of player safety and field longevity for game days and for training for the 2020 season. 

The first place to visit is the website, checking the field status side panel; social media (Facebook mainly, and Twitter) are the next places to check updates. 

The Club thanks all the players and parents during days like these with your patience. 

GAME DAYS | 

When games are at HOME, announcements on weekends should hopefully be announced in the mornings. 

When they are AWAY, it is up to the home club.
