Unable to attend Grading (sick, injured, or other)

If you cannot attend any of the grading sessions, you must inform the Club beforehand in writing via email to grading@castlehillfootball.com.au or ladies@castlehillfootball.com.au.

Players who do not attend grading are likely to be assigned, in the first instance, to the lowest-graded team for that age group.

Suppose a player feels ill or has any injury that may affect their grading performance. In that case, this information must be communicated to the relevant group, Age Grader, prior to the grading session.

Grading Notes

  1. All players from age groups 8 to 18 must attend grading and are individually graded.
  2. A player can play in the age group they turn in the current calendar year or up to two age groups higher. This decision is at the Grading Manager’s discretion.
  1. A player can only grade in one age group, which will be the age group they have registered for.
  2. Friends who wish to play together in one team (“Playing with friends”) must email the club grading manager at grading@castlehillfootball.com.au at least 24 hours before the first grading date for the applicable age group. All friends and parents must agree; however, the final decision is at the Grading Manager’s discretion.
  3. Playing with friends is also contingent on the club’s grading policy, which can be found on the club website at castlehillfootball.com.au.
  4. Players are graded individually based on their performance during grading and, when required, the player evaluation sheet from the previous season (if available).
  5. Teams will generally have between 11 and 16 players for full competition teams, depending on numbers in each age group.
  6. Teams are by no means final at the end of grading – due to sometimes unavoidable player movements after grading, further fine-tuning and team changes may occur after grading.
  7. Please note that although the Club recommends specific grades when registering each team with Hills Football, we do not decide the level or division at which each team ultimately plays – the Hills Football Association has the final say.

If you are not happy with the individual player grading result, appeals on grading must be put in writing via email within 7 days of grading to the Club President president@castlehillfootball.com.au. The Grading Committee will assess them. Their decision is final.

IMPORTANT NOTE

Until teams have been formed after grading and managers have been selected by each team, the club does not typically communicate with individual players and/or parents. It is the players’ and/or parents’ responsibility to regularly view the club website at  www.castlehillfootball.com.au, where all relevant information will be posted.

Grading dates and times can change due to weather, so please ensure you regularly view the club website for all up-to-date information after you have registered. This can be found at  www.castlehillfootball.com.au
