Parents are expected to be at each game to supervise their own child and assist on scoring/bench if asked to by the manager.

The aims of the Sunday League are to provide a fun and exciting opportunity for children to develop their water and ball skills by playing flippa ball in a fun, mildly competitive format.

Club members provide the refereeing services, and encourage parents to help where they can.

Games start promptly at the registered start time and consist of two 10 minute half (20 minutes) and a 2 minute half time break. That gives each team 3 minutes of warm up prior to the start of the game. So Quick in and Quick out for your games.
