PLAYER REGISTRATION 2021/22

17/6/2021

Player Registration 2021/2022: Player Registration will be available from July 5th 2021. The pushed back date to opening registrations is due to the extension of league registrations to June 30th 2021. The extended registrations mean we are unable to display next seasons data as we had done in previous seasons via Whole Game System.

All our platforms will commence season rollover on July 1st and this is expected to take several days due to the sheer amount of data that is being moved into the new season.
