Tursa Employment & Training has aligned with Football Far North Coast as the major strategic partner of the 2024 pre-season competitions.
The Tursa Employment & Training ANZAC Day Cup has a history dating back to 1950. Competitions will be contested for Men’s Premier League, Open A, Open B, Open C and Grade 16 Mixed (with each competition subject to nominations received).
Women’s pre-season competitions will see the Tursa Employment & Training Callan McMillan Memorial Shield proceed. Female football continues to grow in the region with registrations in 2024 anticipated to be boosted by the legacy of the FIFA Women’s World Cup co-hosted in Australia in 2023. Subject to nominations received competitions will be held for ‘A’ Division, ‘B’ Division, and Girls Grade 16.
Football Far North Coast invites clubs that propose to nominate a team(s) in any of the 2024 Tursa Employment & Training ANZAC Day Cup or Callan McMillan Memorial Shield competitions to do so with priority, noting that nominations are accepted in order of submission. The opportunity to nominate a team will close 8th February.
The Competition Regulations have been posted to the FFNC website and can be accessed here.
Players who are interested in participating in one of these pre-season competitions should contact their club, noting that players, team officials and club volunteers can register online from 1st February * (*subject to respective club registration products being submitted and approved by FFNC).
Season 2024 is anticipated to see registrations again surge beyond 7000 players and several thousand other registered participants. We again urge persons aged at least 13 years to step forward and become a match official.
Good luck to all participants in 2024!
