The Chief Medical Officer has advised against gatherings of 500 people or more from Monday 16th March – this does not affect NPNA.

Based on this expert advice the NPNA Saturday competition WILL PROCEED as usual tomorrow.

To reduce risk further everyone should practise good hygiene, this includes:

- washing your hands often with soap and water;
- using a tissue and cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze;
- avoiding close contact with others, such as touching.
Please stay home if you or your child is unwell.

In line with the advice, hand shaking at the end of games will be replaced with 3 cheers for each team.

At this stage we have no specific advice for the Lilydale U11 Tournament or the Macedon Tournament so assume for now all will proceed as normal. Stay tuned to our Facebook page / Team App.

Parkville have advised that they are proceeding as normal.

Thank you in advance for your support & assistance.
