Hello Dragons Family We look forward to welcoming you to Macquarie Dragons FC for Season 2023. Season 2023 we are very excited to be celebrating our 40th Anniversary. 40 years affiliated with our great Association, North West Sydney Football. We will be celebrating in style!  Birthday gifts, celebrity football guests & much more. Stay in tune with all our social media for event updates. We are proud to be one of the most progressive clubs in NWSF. A 40yr young growing club who is proud of our past and ambitious about our future. We have been crowned 2022 NWSF Club Champions, an award we were extremely honoured to receive. This could not be possible without all our dedicated coaches whom give up their time coaching our youth teams and implementing our football philosophy right through to our Premier League teams. We are delighted to be able to offer football across all ages, genders and abilities. We field mini, junior, men’s and women’s teams from Under 6 to Over 45s. As the game continues to develop and grow, all ages from Under 6 up to and including Under 12s will now play under the brand “MiniRoos” (also known as small sided games or SSG). MiniRoos is designed for boys and girls and is all about having fun, learning new skills and making friends while playing football in a team based non-competitive environment. All abilities are welcome and encouraged. In 2023 we are excited to be on a journey with FFA towards the FIFA Women’s World Cup. Helping our Dragons girls aspire to be great footballers & working towards their dream of becoming Matildas.  2023 will be an exciting season for the Club as we enter a team into the Womens Premier League competition for the first time. A development pathway from our minis to youth to Premier League. We will continue our partnership with the world renowned Coerver Football Academy for all players from Under 6 - Under 12, following on from the enormous success in our first season with this programme. We are also continuing our successful Pre-school Programme which will commence in May. This programme will be available to all siblings in our Club as well as the broader community. In 2023 it is recommended that all our coaches are accredited. The Association have many resources to provide excellent coaching development with Football NSW accredited programmes running throughout the season. ​ We are always looking for people to be involved with the Club and a great way to assist is to volunteer for critical roles such as Team Coaches and Managers. Our Club is coordinated and run by a large group of volunteers. The names and contact details of the Committee and Age Managers are listed on the Dragons website for your reference. Please feel free to contact anyone on the Committee should you have any questions or suggestions. We will strive to go above and beyond to ensure we create a safe environment whilst playing for the Dragons in 2023. Please remember to continue supporting our loyal sponsors within the club. We look forward to a fantastic season of fun and successful football! Kathy Tracey President
