Hi All,

As we are now well into season 2025, it’s timely that we highlight some general safety points for your awareness and consideration during the season for our community.

1. BE AWARE OF YOUR CHILD’S WHEREABOUTS AT ALL TIMES
Our coaches will keep an eye on your children during training sessions but it is your responsibility to know where your child is at all times. We especially ask this of you on Friday nights when it’s dark and you might be in the social rooms enjoying a drink and/or something to eat. Ormond Park is surrounded by the Moonee Valley Creek and a freeway which makes it challenging to monitor everyone that enters the grounds. Please also ensure you are punctual to pick-up your children at the conclusion of training.

2. PLEASE CALL-OUT SUSPICIOUS BEHAVIOR
We ask that you exercise heightened vigilance both at Ormond Park and any away matches, and that you call out any suspicious behavior and/or individuals to a committee member or club official. Please look out for each other and our kids. The safety and well-being of our players and families is our number one priority with compromise, and we want to ensure we are proactive in dealing with any suspicious behavior.

3. SLOW DOWN IN THE CAR PARK
The message here is simple, please slow down when driving in the car park and the streets surrounding Ormond Park. The club continues to grow and with every year we see cars travelling through the car park at high speeds. It’s not always MVFC families that are driving the cars but it is all of our responsibility to look out for it and ask drivers to slow down when travelling too fast. Please slow down and keep an eye out for children at all times.
