💬 2026 Registration Fee Update – From the ERJFC Executive

Registrations for the 2026 season are now open and we would love for you to join in the fun at East Ringwood Junior Football Club!

Please use the link https://www.playhq.com/afl/register/49ba40 to complete your registration.

 

The East Ringwood Junior Football Club Executive would like to advise that the 2026 player registration fee will be $290 (including GST).

This change reflects a few key updates — the club is now registered for GST, and this year’s fee includes a premium photo package featuring additional individual portraits, team products, greater digital inclusions, and match day action photography for each team.

The previous photo process will not continue in 2026. Last season, ERJFC was one of only four clubs in the EFNL not using this premium package. To ensure consistency across all teams and align with league standards, participation in the upgraded photo program is non-negotiable this year.

While this represents an increase on last year’s fee, it reflects rising league costs and delivers an improved experience and value for our players and families.

We thank you for your understanding and continued support of our club and community.

– ERJFC Executive

Of course!  New player registrations and enquiries are very welcome.  Please do not hesitate to contact our Registrar, Melody via registrar@erjfc.com.au to find out more information about joining our amazing club.

How do I register?

My email address is not recognised on PlayHQ.  What do I do?

Please contact the ERJFC Registrar who will review the contact email address that is registered to the player (if played previously).

Please do not create a new player profile for a previously registered player as you will duplicate all of your player information.

Does ERJFC take new players?

New player registration enquiries are very welcome.  Please contact the ERJFC Registrar to find out more. Provided there are places available on a requested team after the current ERJFC player priority registration period, we will then be able to accept new and transferring players into teams.

With regards to transfers, as the incoming club, ERJFC will need to initiate an online transfer with the player’s original club.  You will be required to provide some basic player information and proof of age ie. Birth certificate or passport prior to your transfer being requested.

What happens after we register?

All new players will receive a welcome email from the Registrar with all the information you need to get started at ERJFC.  All new players will also receive a ‘New Player Kit’, comprising player bag, socks and drink bottle.  You will need to purchase your own player shorts but a playing guernsey will be provided for you (on loan for the season).

The Registrar will share the contact details you have provided at registration with team officials, so you are included in important team information and updates.

FURTHER PLAY HQ INFORMATION

All player information is now stored on the player portal, PlayHQ.  If you have difficulty registering your child, information on this process has been provided by the EFNL and is available at EFNL_PlayHQ How to Register Players Step by Step Instructions.

Many parents/guardians may already have a profile in the PlayHQ system, due to their involvement with other sports such as basketball or cricket who also use PlayHQ.   For parents/ guardians who have not used PlayHQ previously, you will be required to create a new account.  Please use the email address that was used to register your child this football season and ensure all of your child’s details are correct (name spelling, DOB).

After entering your child’s details on the registration form, anyone who had a child playing AFL previously will be prompted to ‘claim’ their child’s profile.  This process will link your child’s former Gameday profile with their new PlayHQ profile.   If you have any questions relating to registration, please reach out to our Registrar.

Once registered, you will be able to view your child’s playing history (back to 2015), statistics and upcoming game schedule once the season commences.  We recommend you download the PlayHQ app on your phones/devices to enable simple access to this information throughout the football season.
