Playing time is always a sensitive issue in team sports. The purpose of Fremantle Wolves’ (FWFC) playing time policy is to document and communicate the club-wide guidelines in advance to ensure that those who commit to the FWFC understand what factors will be used to determine playing time over the course of the season.

In futsal, each outfield player constitutes 20% of the team on the court, so attendance at training is critical to align players and allow the team to function as a unit during competition.
