The NSW Government has recently announced the extension of the lockdown for Greater Sydney until Saturday, 28 August 2021.
This has resulted in the several proposed resumptions of community football put on hold once again. Of obviously greater concern is the lockdown extension date now takes us to the final week scheduled for our HFI Competitions.
HFI Chairperson and General Manager will participate in an FNSW Associations meeting on Thursday, 29 July with the Football NSW Chairman and CEO to discuss the current state of play inclusive of any such plans around season extensions, updates from Office of Sport, etc.
We will continue to keep our Member Clubs up to date on all ‘Return to Play’ scenarios and plans as they progress following the most recent updates.
For the moment HFI will still progress with our Summer Football registrations (competition scheduled to commence Sept 20) and will advise of any changes to this program should it occur.
We appreciate the angst and uncertainty around the current season viability and can assure members we will work toward the best possible outcomes within the constraints of the NSW Government restrictions. We thank our entire Hills Football community for their ongoing support and understanding.
