Saturday Rooks

Information for parents and carers

We are excited to welcome current Lewes FC Juniors members and drop-in players to our Saturday Morning Rooks sessions! To register as a Drop-In Player, click here.

Important Information for Attendance:

Spond App Registration: Sign your child in via the Spond app and pay £7 (free for current Juniors members) before 7am on the morning before the session. 

Confirmation: A message will be sent by 730am via Spond confirming if your child has a space. Please note that space is limited, so you must check, as you may not have a space.

Appropriate Behaviour: If you show up with your child but do not have your space confirmed, or if you are late for the poem, or if your child is wearing inappropriate kit, we will turn you away with a refund where appropriate. We reserve the right to ask both parents and children to leave if we deem behaviour is inappropriate. We invite parents to look over the parent-club contract here to get a flavour of what we expect from Lewes FC Juniors players.

Parent/Carer Presence: Parents or carers must stay for the entire session and stand together with children and facilitators for the poem when the whistle blows.
