Quick answers
Is Robina Common closed today? See the Robina Common row above. It shows Council's latest call and turns amber if it's rained since.
Why does Council's list show an old date? Council only updates at 8.30am and 2pm on business days, and only when something changes. After heavy rain an old date can mean the list is behind the weather.
Training cancelled — can we play tonight? Yes. Book a caged pitch by the hour, or bring the kids to $15 Kicks. Astro boots or moulded studs, no metal.
Does Street RULZ get rained off? No. All-weather turf, floodlit. Lightning pauses play until it passes; rain doesn't.
Is there a summer competition? Yes, Summer Fives: juniors U7 to U16 and seniors, every league game refereed, with the juniors’ Grand Finals 23–26 Nov and the seniors’ Grand Final on Tue 1 Dec.
