Accommodation
All players will be staying at:
Flynn’s Beach Resort, 68 Pacific Drive, Port Macquarie
Rooming will be structured to support group bonding and leadership:
- Three athletes per room
- One senior player from the U17 team (room leader)
- One player from each U15 team
U17 players will be responsible for basic supervision and leadership, including holding the room key whilst at accommodation and ensuring curfews and team expectations are followed within each room. Teams will have common areas to hang out, under adult supervision.
We will also ask for one parent per team to volunteer as Team Manager. These volunteers will stay in a shared room, with accommodation costs fully covered by the club. They’ll assist coaches with basic logistics and provide additional support to players over the weekend.
Final rooming lists will consider personality, compatibility, and any medical or behavioural needs.
