We understand that the ongoing COVID-19 situation is an unprecedented challenge for everyone, both personally and professionally. Our hearts and thoughts go out to Pascoe Vale FC members and families and any infected with the virus.

This is a strange and difficult time. We are all concerned about what the coronavirus pandemic means for our health, our livelihoods and our communities, both in the short and long term.

Yesterday, we were forced to lockdown again by the Government due to the high COVID-19 infections just when the season was going to start again.

Football Victoria will continue to explore all fixturing alternatives to ensure all matches are played , however acknowledges the situation is fluid and any decisions made may change.

At Pascoe Vale FC our priority is health and safety for our players , fans and the community. This is an unprecedented crisis , one which is constantly evolving.

We know that many of you will have questions about registration fees. These are hard to answer at a time with this recent change. We have agreed to work with Football Victoria to find a fair and consistent approach.

As a sporting club we are facing many of the same challenges as many as other businesses and groups in the community. Whilst we are disappointed as you might be that there is no football for the time being , we also know that the protection of public health is paramount and that everyone needs to do their part to minimise further escalation.

We ask for your patience and support as we continue to work hard as we can to navigate this uncertainty. As a community we will work together to overcome this challenge.

We would like to thank you for your understanding and support. The sentiment and solidarity shown by members to the Club has been amazing in such trying circumstances, and it’s appreciated by everyone at the club.

Stay strong, look out for each other, and most importantly, please follow the social distancing protocols to keep yourself, your family, and community safe,

Pascoe Vale FC will be back on the field and when we do, we’ll give our very best.
