Building Healthy Kids
and Stronger
Communities
For 70 years, Fernhill Junior Football Club has given Wollongong children more than sport, a place to grow, belong, and thrive. All ages, all abilities, all welcome.
More Than a Football Club
Fernhill Juniors exists to advance the health, wellbeing, and social development of young people in the Towradgi/Fernhill community, using football as the vehicle to get there.
Physical Health
Regular structured activity helps children meet daily exercise guidelines and develop healthy habits that last a lifetime. Football builds cardiovascular fitness, coordination, and strength in a fun, social setting.
Mental Wellbeing
Team sport is one of the most effective tools for supporting children's mental health. Training and match days build resilience, reduce anxiety, foster belonging, and give kids something to look forward to every week.
Life Skills
We teach far more than football. Every session develops discipline, communication, problem-solving, goal-setting, and leadership: skills that serve young people throughout their education and adult lives.
Inclusion & Access
No child should miss out because of cost or circumstance. Financial hardship assistance is available, and we actively work to keep registration as affordable as possible. Football at Fernhill is for every kid in our community.
Community Belonging
Seventy years of Towradgi and Fernhill families, sideline friendships, volunteer coaches, and shared Saturday mornings. The Falcons community extends far beyond the final whistle. It is a network of neighbours who look out for each other.
Safe Environment
Child safety is non-negotiable. All coaches hold Working With Children Checks, and our club operates under Football Australia's safeguarding frameworks. Parents can drop their kids off knowing they are cared for and protected.
Serving the Towradgi & Fernhill Community
Fernhill Junior Football Club is a non-profit, volunteer-run organisation. All registration fees, sponsorships, and fundraising revenue is reinvested directly into programs, equipment, and keeping the sport accessible for every child in our community.
Find Your Team
We run teams across all age groups from MiniRoos through to competitive junior football. Every child gets game time, quality coaching, and a team they are proud to represent.
Every Child Deserves to Play
Registrations for the 2026 season are now closed. For enquiries about joining the club, get in touch with us directly.
