FQ Guidelines on Lightning, Heat and Surface Water on the field


⚡ Lightning

  • If the time between seeing a lightning flash and hearing thunder is less than 30 seconds (indicating the storm is within ~10 km), stop all outdoor activity immediately and seek shelter. Football Queensland+1

  • After the last thunder or lightning flash, wait a minimum of 30 minutes before resuming outdoor activities. Football Queensland

  • Prior to match/training days: check the weather for thunderstorm risk via the BOM website; monitor during sessions. Football Queensland


☀️ Heat

  • FQ’s guidelines state that if matches/training are scheduled between 11:00am–4:00pm and the ambient temperature is 32 °C with ~75% humidity, the event should be postponed/rescheduled. Football Queensland+1

  • Note: even at lower temperatures, a session may require modification or postponement because of additional factors (humidity, radiant heat, poor ventilation). Football Queensland


💧 Field Conditions – Water on Surface / Playability

  • According to FQ’s Rules of Competition, a match official may abandon or postpone a fixture if “playing conditions compromise participant safety” (which includes unsafe surfaces, excessive water‐logging, or other hazards). Football Queensland+1

  • Even if no specific temperature/water rule is cited, clubs are responsible to ensure the surface is safe to play/train on — if there’s standing water or the surface is badly water-logged, modification or cancellation may be required.

  • Decision-making: The Referee or Training Lead must assess field conditions and standard metrics (e.g., surface drainage, level of standing water, player safety) before proceeding.

2023 Registration Fee and Refund Policy


The Club understands that circumstances change and players may seek a refund of registration fees paid.

All requests for any cancellation of registration should be made in writing to the Club Registrar and Treasurer.

Under this Policy any player who registers for the coming season but does not play in part or all of the season, may be entitled to a full or partial refund of their registration fees based upon the reason for not playing out the season.

The intent of this policy is to provide clarity regarding how refunds of registration fees will be granted, to deliver a mutually amicable outcome for the Club and the player.

Governing Body Documentation - FQ, FFA, FIFA & Government

With recent events surrounding the integrity of Australian Sport and the release of the Australian Crime Commission's Organised Crime and Drugs in Sport Report in February, Football Federation Australia and Football Queensland feel that it is timely to provide you with a consolidated suite of documents relating to the administration of our sport, including those that that cover areas of concern raised by the afore mentioned report.

Most of these documents have been in existence and published on websites for quite some time, however please ensure you at least review the newly formalised policies around Game Integrity and review recent revisions of the National Registration Regulations, FIFA Laws Of The Game, National Member Protection Policy and National Privacy Policy.

The links highlighted in the included memo from Football Queensland will take you to the relevant documentation.-
