Pitch Care - Club policy
Both Superstars & Shooting Stars will be mainly held on our main Pitch 1 or on designated small pitches situated behind the main stand. This pitch is our main senior competitive pitch and has to be kept and maintained to allow senior fixtures in line with Football Victoria's pitch policies.
Parents, Spectators, family members are to refrain from this pitch. There is an undercover seated area next to the pitch which allows everyone to watch and enjoy your children learning to play football. We have fantastic barista coffee on sale through the canteen so you can sit back and enjoy.
Prams, bicycles, scooters and any other games are not allowed on to the main pitch at any time. Player Entrance & Exit to the pitch is at the gate at the bottom of the pitch area.
Pitch access is for players, coaches and administrators only.
Adverse Weather Conditions: - See the CLUB'S WEATHER POLICY HERE
The Club will not call off training unless;
a) Conditions are extreme - Such as high temperatures, thunderstorms and continuous heavy rain. information will be posted on the Facebook page and website - If there is no information it means the program will run as normal. We do check the forecast regularly.
b) We are advised and requested by the City of Casey - Pitch and grounds preservation
c) The pitches are waterlogged
If the warnings or pitch conditions are available in time, the program manager will issue a notice direct to all participants. We ask that not everyone tries to ring the program manager or club as it clogs personal phone lines and the majority work during the day.
Other Benefits
The welcomes you as part of the Club. Whilst our main aim is facilitate football training for your child and ensure that they have the most enjoyable time with us. We also strive to create a great community club. There will be several functions through the year, some will be for or with the young players and some will be adults. Some are just for social reasons while other events will be fundraising.
We generally have a kids disco part way through the year - which is always successful (& loud!). We hold trivia nights, Ladies Day, Band Nights and of course there are the end of season presentations plus more. We are also open to suggestions.
We hope that many of our Superstars will act as mascots on Senior Match Day and the older ones will act as Ball Boys for the Senior teams.
We especially hope that our younger girls will enjoy watching our Victorian Premier League Women.
In 2022, we are delighted to announce that we will be a Melbourne City Platinum Club. This will give all our Superstar players free tickets to 6 of the final home games of the 2021/22 Season. It will also give players an opportunity to participate in City's home game through 1/2 games. Our coaches will also benefit by access to sessions with City coaches. (The 6 game free ticket offer is only available to players that have paid program fees).
Coaching - Casey Comets is always looking for parents, guardians, older siblings that would like to become a coach or interested in assisting with a team on match days. The program is set up that any prospective coach would be mentored during training and the Club will also support any coach through undertaking FV accredited training. This will help the coach manage player transition to defined teams.
