Once you have selected your club and registration package follow the steps to complete the registration. This will also give you the option of registering with a credit card.

A reminder that all players, coaches and volunteers that register with South Hobart FC are required to abide by the relevant Codes of Conduct . See policies.

confirmation of registration
Your Club registration is pending until the Club Registrar completes the final step of accepting your registration after payment has been made. You will NOT be registered to play until the Club Registrar has completed this step. You can monitor your registration status by logging into Playfootball and viewing your Registration Status on the Registration Details page.

refund policy
Refunds are available on the Club component of the fee in the event of extenuating circumstances — such as serious season ending injury or interstate relocation. The FT/FFA component of the fee is not refundable as the Club merely collects and passes that onto FT/FFA. Refunds are NOT available when a player changes their mind about playing for the Club.

club information

Every cent of your player registration fees goes directly into football. 

You get to play football in organised competitions recognised ultimately by FIFA, insurance cover as a player and/or as a volunteer, club support, quality training with qualified coaches and facilities. Plus all registered South Hobart players get free ground entry to all our Mens National Premier League home games at D’Arcy Street. For juniors this includes one adult who takes you to games.

South Hobart FC is community club with no paid employees and total reliance on volunteers. Sources of income are limited to player registrations, fundraising — including volunteers operating the canteen — and sponsorships. Sometimes we are gifted funds from loyal supporters.

Wellesley Park is owned by the Hobart City Council (HCC).  It has undergone extensive redevelopment over recent years which was championed by independent MP Andrew Wilkie member for Clarke & was funded by successive Liberal and Labor Governments and the HCC through specific purpose grants. South Hobart Oval ( D’Arcy St) has been earmarked for much needed new lighting & clubrooms incorporating female player & referee change rooms , all access toilets & canteen subject to extensive community consultation ,HCC approval & funding.

qualified coaches
At SHFC we would like all players to be guided on match day by FFA qualified coaches. The reality is that for our junior teams we will rely on parents to volunteer in coaching roles on match days, however, do not want these few parents both giving up their time and being lumped with the cost of becoming accredited. This is a cost that we believe should be shared by everyone and as such it has been incorporated in the junior registration fees. Please contact Victoria Morton if you are interested in a junior coaching role. We will need one parent for each junior team. SHFC will endeavour to support this parent by having our coaching players attend games, but this will be subject to their own playing commitments.
