FAQs

What should my child wear?

Players should bring soccer boots, shin pads, hat or cap, sunscreen and water bottle to our Academy sessions and clinics. Drinks and snacks will also be available for sale before and after each session.

What about the weather?

JGFA WET WEATHER/ CANCELLATION POLICY

Due to the unpredictability of our weather in Far North Queensland and to ensure JGFA always provides a safe and manageable playing environment, our Wet Weather Policy is as follows:

– JGFA reserve the right to cancel training sessions and/or events if the sporting grounds are deemed unplayable.

– JGFA reserve the right to cancel training sessions and/or events if the weather does not permit playing.
-Unless a cancellation has been advised or announced, all training sessions and/or events will proceed as per normal.
– In the unlikely event that JGFA are forced to cancel any training sessions/events/holiday clinics etc due to bad weather or unplayable field conditions, any fees paid will be automatically credited for use within 6 months. Credit may be used towards term fees, tournaments, holiday clinics, private coaching or merchandise. In the case of unplayable weather/conditions, we have a no refunds policy in place. The only event which does not allow the transfer of credit or refunds is the JGFA Champions League.
– JGFA recommend that players bring appropriate extra kit and spare clothing to change into if affected by extreme wet weather. This should also include towel and kit bag to transport wet boots and kit.
– Although players are required to wear the official jgfa kit, we encourage them to wear their rain jackets when necessary.

What if my child is ill or injured?

Please inform Jamie Gosling Football Academy of any pre-existing illness, allergies or injury of any participants prior to the program commencing. Make up sessions can be arranged in certain circumstances.

What time should we arrive?

Each player should arrive at least 15 minutes prior to the commencement of each session. They are encouraged to grab a ball and have some skills practice.

Will my child actually train with Jamie Gosling?

Jamie will coach as many sessions himself as possible. Our highly-qualified coaches will be taking sessions alongside Jamie, with all sessions and term schedules planned by Jamie.
