The 2022 season is set to commence on Sunday, May 1st, and the draws for all age groups can be found on the Competitions Tab of the club's website. The club encourages players, supporters, and rival teams to stay updated by downloading the GameDay App, which provides access to match results, fixtures, and statistics.

Western NSW Football has established itself as a hub for football enthusiasts in the community. As a result, the club's social media presence attracts a strong following from local sports lovers.

Additionally, Western NSW Football places a strong emphasis on the safety and well-being of its members. By adhering to important policies such as the FFA Member Protection Policy and the FNSW Privacy Policy, the club ensures that all players, coaches, and volunteers can participate in a secure and inclusive environment. Additionally, the club acknowledges the importance of the Working With Children Check (WWC) for anyone working or volunteering with children under the age of 18.

The WWC Check is a government requirement, and individuals who have cleared the check are issued with a WWC Number. This number must be provided to the club, ensuring that all personnel involved in football activities are compliant with the necessary child protection measures. Exceptions to the WWC Check include individuals under the age of 18, referees, volunteers who solely coach or manage their own child's or close relative's team, canteen managers and workers, caterers, and grounds personnel.
