Sutherland Shire Titans FC became the Sutherland Shire Football Association’s (SSFA) 26th club in 2006. After a successful debut season playing under the name Sutherland Shire Special Division in 2005, the group has officially joined the SSFA and expects to have up to 90 players registered in the coming year.
In 2005, 4 teams of children with various special needs participated in an abbreviated competition. The Pandas, Polars, Koalas and Grizzlies had an immensely enjoyable season culminating in a trophy presentation and BBQ at Gymea Bay Oval hosted by Gymea United Soccer Club.
Players are welcome from all areas and the club currently has players from the Shire and surrounding districts, making the Titans FC the largest soccer club of its type in NSW. In 2011 it is expected that as many as 10 teams will participate in games during the season
The aim of Titans FC is to include kids with special needs in mainstream sport and to have lots of fun at the same time. Games are played on Saturday afternoons and have a similar format to SSF for younger players through to full field for our senior teams. Players are encouraged to play independently of parents or guardian, however a parent or guardian may accompany their child on the field. Games are played against teams who have byes in their SSFA competitions each weekend.
