Our Club
St Catherine's United Football Club (St Cats) is an incorporated non-profit organisation owned by its members. The operation of St Cats is governed by a constitution that provides for administration by a Management Committee formed from the membership.
The grounds at Peter Lightfoot Oval in the western suburbs used by St Cats are the property of Brisbane City Council and are leased by Centenary Combined Sporting Association, of which St Cats is a proud member.
Our Mission
St Cats is dedicated to building a positive, inclusive football community. Our mission includes:
- Foster, develop and encourage the sport of football for the benefit of players of all ages in the Centenary suburbs.
- Provide children with the opportunity to enjoy playing football and to develop their abilities as players.
- Foster and encourage good sportsmanship and a sense of friendly competition between all participants.
- Insist that all players, parents and team officials abide by the Aussie Sports Code of Behaviour and the rules of the Queensland Christian Soccer Association.
- Encourage players, coaches, managers and parents to conduct themselves in a manner that reflects well on our club and our community.
- Improve the wellbeing of the Centenary community by providing a medium for a wide cross-section of players and their families to form new friendships.
- Encourage participation in the worship and undertakings of the Christian Gospel through our association with St Catherine's Anglican Church.
Queensland Christian Soccer Association
We want parents and players to enjoy the game, and we have no place for unruly behaviour. St Cats teams play under By-Laws administered by Queensland Christian Soccer Association (QCSA) and the Federation International Football Association (FIFA), the governing body of football that sets the rules and guidelines for all competitions.
QCSA is responsible for organising fixture draws, player insurance, dispute resolution, and liaison with Football Queensland.
Our Home Ground
Our primary home ground is Peter Lightfoot Oval in Middle Park. Named in memory of club co-founder Peter Lightfoot, it is the heart of St Cats football. We also use facilities at Good News Lutheran School and 111 Yallambee Road Jindalee for some training sessions.
Our Church
St Cats has a proud association with St Catherine's Anglican Church at 43 Macfarlane Street, Middle Park. All club members and their families are warmly welcome to attend. Learn more about our church.
