The Moorabbin Kangaroos Football Club is preparing for its Round 15 fixture against Dandenong West on Saturday and has issued a standing call for new players to register before the next training sessions.

The timing matters because the club fields both a senior men’s team and a reserves team in the Southern Football and Netball League Division 4, and fresh recruits can still slot into the 2026 campaign without missing the remaining fixtures.

Training takes place on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at Widdop Crescent Oval in Hampton East, the same ground the club has used for decades as its base while representing Moorabbin in local competition.

Training schedule and match details

Players are expected at 6pm sharp on both nights, with sessions running until 8pm. The senior side kicks off at 2pm on Saturday at Greaves Reserve, while the reserves begin at midday, giving anyone who joins this week a clear pathway to match-day involvement.

The club, established in 1965, continues to operate from its Hampton East home while drawing support and participants from across Moorabbin. Its website lists the two teams currently competing in Division 4 and confirms that players of every experience level are accepted.

How to get started

Prospective players can visit the club’s welcome page or contact section on mkfc.org.au to register interest. The site also provides directions to Greaves Reserve and a full calendar of remaining matches, allowing new members to plan around work and family commitments immediately.

Those who attend the next training block will meet the existing squad and receive guidance on the club’s expectations around teamwork and preparation before the Dandenong West contest. The Moorabbin Kangaroos Football Club maintains an open-door policy for the rest of the season, with all updates available directly from its official site at https://www.mkfc.org.au/.
