Volunteering
The club is always looking for volunteers to help with small roles that won't take too much of your time. We'd love to hear from you if you can help, or have an interest in giving coaching a go. Please get in contact hello@tcafc.co.nz and we will put you in contact with the best person to chat with.

Cancellations/Grounds Closed
We post these on Facebook by 2pm weekdays and 7-7:30am Saturday morning. If you don’t have Facebook, we have a Facebook feed on our website. Please don’t message us asking if games or training is on, as we can’t reply to everyone.
Training
Your coaches or managers will advise you your training day and time.
Sideline Behaviour
Please respect the referee and opposition and let those that have volunteered, coach and manage the team. At TCAFC, we do not tolerate poor sideline behaviour. If you witness any (from a TCAFC member or someone from another club), please email hello@tcafc.co.nz with details, so we can investigate.
