2025 Season Enrolment Information and Terms
UQFC teams play under rules administered by Football Queensland with primary fields at the University of Queensland, St Lucia (Seniors) and Cubberla Creek in Kenmore (Juniors).
By proceeding to the squadi site you acknowledge that you have received a written offer of a place at the club and have already completed step 1 of the process below:
1. Enrolment & Payment of CLUB FEES via UQFC and
2. Registration & Payment of GOVERNING BODY (FA/FQ Fees) through squadi
Please note if you have not received a confirmed offer of a place, we reserve the right to cancel your online registration.
FEES IN 2025 - Please note the change as below
Payment of fees in 2025 will be different as Football Qld has mandated that Governing Body fees are to be processed through the squadi platform. Fee payments therefore will consist of TWO parts:
1. UQFC CLUB Enrolment fees; and
2. FQ & FA - GOVERNING BODY fees
Please be advised that all fees MUST be paid in full prior to 2025 training commencing, Players will only be made active once Enrolment Fees have been received and the "Squadi" registration is completed. Each player will receive an email from 'squadi' when the registration has been approved by the club. Failure to do so will result in your child remaining 'inactive' in the system, unregistered with FQ and FA, uninsured and unable to participate in training or games.
Should you have any questions pertaining to the payment of fees please contact the Club Accountant directly on finance@uqfc.com.au

Please note that fees are higher for FQ ACADEMY, FQPL & DEVELOPMENT players. This is due, but not limited to the following:
*ACADEMY, FQPL & DEVELOPMENT teams have a longer season calendar, train twice each week, requiring larger field spaces than MiniRoos and other Junior's, therefore incurring higher facility and overhead costs over the course of the extended season
* FQPL, FQA & DEVELOPMENT teams incur higher referees' fees than other juniors.
* ACADEMY, FQA, FQPL & DEVELOPMENT teams have paid coaches.
SIBLING DISCOUNT
