Question 1

What is included in my fees?

Accepted Answer

Broken down, your fees include:

Association Fees - Football Australia & Football West Fees
Club Fees - which cover City of Canning ground usage costs and Lynwood United FC Operating Fees.

At Lynwood United, our motto is to make football affordable.

Please note: as a Community Club, Lynwood United does not have an in-house State League or NPL team. As such, all fees (excluding Association Fees and City of Canning Fees) go into the club to improve and expand on the club’s resources and do not subsidise Player or Coach’s wages.

Question 2

What else am I up for financially?

Accepted Answer

If you do not already own Lynwood United FC Home and Away Shirts, then you will be required to purchase these either via our online webshop or at one of our Merchandise Nights. You will also be able to place an order for your shirts through your team manager.

(Please Note - U6 & U7s do not require an Away Shirt)

Players are required to wear red shorts and red socks. This is not negotiable as these are our club colours. Shorts and Socks plus other Merchandise will be available from our Pop-Up shops.

We also encourage our players and their families to participate in Fundraising activities throughout the year. These events assist with raising funds to keep our fees low.

Question 3

Can I pay early?

Accepted Answer

Payment is required at time of Registrations. Registrations are usually open mid to late January of each year.
