FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ's)

  • Do all players in all age groups require a parent/support worker on the field?
    No. KMBA does not require a parent/support worker to be on the field. We understand some players may need additional assistance but encourage guardians to give players the space to participate independently where possible. Coaches may ask for help from time to time if required.
  • Can my child's sibling without special needs participate as in past years?
    We do not allow siblings without cognitive or physical disabilities to participate​.
  • My child is close to the age cut off for one group, can I move them to the older group if they have played before and want to be with friends or other siblings with disabilities?
    Due to small groups etc we will have to look at requests on a case-by-case basis depending on registration and space available in each group.
