PJFC welcomes registration for players looking to join our Club for the 2023 Season. 

The cost to register a player is $345, plus the $50 SMJFL fee.

By registering at Prahran, your child is joining a club focused on, and guided by, a set of core values including Development, Enjoyment, Sportsmanship, Inclusiveness, Respect and Encouragement. We have a strong focus on enjoyment through learning football with peers, guided by open minded Coaches who are keen to develop all players.

PJFC offers preseason training from 17th January (only for those registered at PJFC), together with skills training, and further development through the season. 

There are plenty of opportunities for parents to get involved also: if you’re interested in helping out in any way, please indicate this on the registration form. 

Conditions of Registration

• Please note the age requirements for each playing age group before registering – these can be found on the opening page of the registration form.  
• Children wishing to play in an age group younger than they are eligible for will need to seek an exemption from the league – please contact Beth Schofield registrar@prahranjfc.com for details
• New players to the club, (including those transitioning from Auskick), will need to validate their age – the club will arrange to sight proof of age documentation (birth certificate or passport) once registration is received
• Registrations must be paid in full, or have arranged a payment plan or other arrangement with the club prior to being accepted
• Registrations are on a first-come-first-served basis.  The club will close age groups to further registrations if target squad numbers are reached
• Registrations will be open to returning members and new players (including those transitioning from Auskick) for two weeks until the end of January.  From 1 February 2023, we will also be accepting transfers from other clubs.

 Instructions for Registering Players

• Please click this link to register - https://www.playhq.com/afl/register/17bff4
• Please note in 2023 the SMJFL have changed registration systems from ‘Gameday’ to ‘PlayHQ’.  If you already have a PlayHQ account you may just log in to your existing account.  Otherwise, please create a new account.
• If the name and DOB of your child match that of a previous registration, you will be asked to ‘Claim Profile’ during the registration process.  Please go ahead and claim the profile as this will bring across your child’s playing history from the old ‘Gameday’ system to the new ‘PlayHQ’ system.
• Note that you can only register and pay for one child at a time using the new system.

Any issues with paying fees, please contact Beth Schofield registrar@prahranjfc.com

Instructions for registering Volunteers

• All volunteers including Coaches, Team Managers, Trainers, Umpires and other volunteers must also register via PlayHQ. Please follow the same approach as above to register, and provide your valid Working With Children’s Certificate (WWCC).  There is no cost to register as a volunteer at PJFC.
