Upcoming Events including this weekend & Award Nominations

Dear friends,

We’re excited to share details of our upcoming end-of-year celebrations — a chance to recognise all the hard work of our players (despite this being the wettest August on record!).

Presentation Days
Saturday 30 August – Miniroos & Juniors (up to U15)
Time: From 9:00am until early afternoon
Activities: BBQ, fun photo opportunities, ice cream, and games (where permitted)
Details: Please keep an eye on our social media channels for exact timings. Following the Presentation day we will see the men’s premier league teams kick off for one final time this season 1pm & 3pm.

A full day of celebrating football awaits you all!

Friday 5 September – U16–U18 & Adults
U16-U18 from 530PM followed by the Adults Presentation Night from 7PM. Please note: the adult’s event is a social night and not suitable for kids.
Kisso Jerseys & Lost Property
All players must return their washed game shirts to their team manager, who will return the full set to the club on presentation day.A season’s worth of lost property will be available for collection inside the clubhouse. Anything left unclaimed by 2:00pm on Saturday will be donated to charity. Lost property includes a mountain of water bottles that are available to be washed and claimed by a new owner – let’s save the environment.
Raffle & Fundraiser
We’ll also be running a small Kisso fundraiser raffle. Thanks to the generosity of Workplace Law (a wonderful legal firm who loves football as much as us), we have two amazing prizes:
Signed Melbourne City Men’s Shirt – featuring Socceroo Matt Leckie.
Signed Melbourne City Women’s Shirt – including signatures from several Young Matildas, after their top-of-the-table season.These are collector’s items and a great way to our support the club in the process!

Thank You

We know it’s been a tough end to the season with so many fields washed out. While we avoided a sinkhole at Auluba, we almost ended up with a lake! Huge thanks go to our dedicated volunteers — especially Sam Tewater, who has been out every weekend at 7am checking grounds, mud, water, and playability. Without this kind of commitment, football wouldn’t have been possible. We look forward to celebrating together soon. Thanks Nic

Unless we fill these roles, the club cannot run the way it does today.
This is where YOU come in. Every single one of us is busy — jobs, kids, study, businesses, caregiving — but together, we make it work. You’ll never do it alone. You’ll be supported, appreciated, and part of something bigger. 

Roles that must be filled:
VP Miniroos — ideally a parent of a 6–7 year old. Nat & Rich have carried this for a decade — time to give them a break!
VP Juniors — ideally a parent of a 12–13 year-old. Alia has done an incredible job but as her kids move on, so should she be allowed.
Registrar — Aron is stepping down after many years. Half covered, but only if other roles are filled.
JDL Coordinator — ideally a parent of a JDL 8–9 player. Christian has built something great — now we need someone to continue it.
Manager of Men’s Prems — Rohan is moving overseas. We need someone to step in.
NEW: Saturday Canteen Coordinator — bring back the Saturday BBQ! Community is asking for it, and it’s a key revenue stream.
NEW: Club Technical Director — ensure our coaches and programs meet community needs.
NEW: Juniors Coordinator — support the VP Juniors and strengthen this vital age group.

Thanks 

Nic
