Blackheath Football Club

Over the last few weeks, there has been several incidents involving spectators

of Blackheath FC matches where the behavior of those spectators has not

been acceptable. 

Therefore it is worth reminding spectators that as a club we represent our small

community and good behaviour is expected at all matches. 

All clubs playing football in the LDFA competition at Marjorie Jackson Playing Fields in Lithgow are participating in the SHOOSH For Kids Winter Awareness Month,

which runs from May 1st to May 31st this year.

Shoosh for Kids' intention is to keep sport focused on fun so that kids

continue to enjoy participating in sport and that all volunteers,

especially young participants like the referee's at Lithgow enjoy

their experience and want to come back. Not just during May, but for the whole

season and seasons after that.

Shoosh for Kids is a collaborative effort between the Office of Sport and

State Sporting Organisations to promote positive behaviour

to their members, clubs and associations. 

The general rule is, if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. 

WHAT HAPPENS IN WET WEATHER?

Lithgow District Football Association football matches are played during the winter months,

so wet weather conditions can be common. Matches are only cancelled if the

ground is closed by Lithgow City Council or conditions are deemed dangerous for players.

Also, Radio station 2LT (101FM) will make an announcement on Saturday mornings at the

start of the 'Sports Show' just after the 8am news if matches have been cancelled.

Duty Club Roster

Regards Blackheath FC being on Duty Club duty, all clubs are assigned equal dates and timeslots throughout the season where they are required to be the Duty Club. 

Blackheath FC has been allocated the Duty Club role on three full days this season, and two other occasions when we are required for 1 hour only. 

Two more dates are a possibility if the club takes part in the Sevens Carnival and if age

appropriate teams progress to their Grand Finals.
