Division 3/4- This is a good squad for those players who may not be up for PL but are still looking to play a high standard of football in a competitive division. This squad will also be fully coached for both training and match days and lead by head coach peter Regan. It is important to note that a player cannot be registered to play until they have paid. The club will endeavour to find a team for all players but to ensure that all squads have the appropriate numbers of players there is a limit to the number of players who can be registered so to give yourself the best chance of ensuring you will have a team it is imperative that players register and pay as early as possible.
Overview
In 2009 Lindfield was the largest All Age club in the KDSA competition with 17 teams catering for all levels of skill, experience and commitment. In 2010 we will offer football in Division 1,3,4,5,6 and 7. We endeavour to find a place for all new players and are particularly interested in attracting quality players for our Premier League squad and our Division 3/4 squad.
There are many reasons to play All Age Football. You may be re-visiting the game you enjoyed in your youth, want to improve fitness levels or looking for a team sport to enjoy with your mates. The social side to the game is as important to many of our players as the playing and we encourage teams to invite girlfriends and mates along to support their efforts.
We are very fortunate to have our own clubhouse (WLSRC, Highfield Road) which is home to the coldest, cheapest beers on the North Shore and always open on the afternoon of every match day. We also host a number of social events including FA Cup Trivia and end of season barefoot bowls.

How much does it cost?
The fees for 2008 were set at $305($315 for PL) and we expect in 2010 they will be the same and this will be confirmed in early Feb.. The majority of these fees are used to pay KDSA for registration, oval hire and general competition administration. The remainder is used for uniforms,coaching and club administration expenses. The club tries to keep fees as low as possible given increasing overheads imposed by KDSA and levies the from FFA.
How do I register and pay?
1. In person with cash/chq/credit card at Registration day is on Saturday 6th February – 8am to 3pm
What social events take place?
Apart from a friendly drink with team mates after each game , the club plans social events throughout the season including FA cup trivia night and end of season barefoot bowls. In 2009 we hope to make more use of our clubouse for post match celebrations together with our Over 35 and Women’s All Age players.
