President's Report ANNUAL REPORT 2006 President’s report The ACT Women’s AFL (ACTWAFL) in 2006 has continued to expand on the foundations built by the committee in previous years and have continued to strengthen relationships within the AFL Community ensuring exposure of women’s football in Canberra. During 2006, the ACTWAFL continued to grow with new players, including junior girls as young as 14, participate in key positions within the teams. Other highlights this year included the Kangaroos hosting a training session for women. All who attended received personal coaching on techniques and gained an insight into the player’s weekly routine for game preparation. The ACTWAFL again participated in a pre-season game against NSW in Dubbo, fielding a stronger side under the guidance of the Representative Coach, Joe Box. The opportunity given to those who played on the day was welcomed by all those involved and will continue to provide women who are thinking of trying out for the ACT representative team an opportunity to play in a representative practice match. The ACTWAFL pre-season carnival and Open day again provided an opportunity for all teams to play prior to the season being undertaken. This also provided an opportunity for new players to ease themselves into the game. Congratulations to Eastlake for winning the Denny-Divett pre-season Shield. This day was a great success with guest appearances from ACT MLA Mr John Hargraves and Debbie Lee, President of the Victorian Women’s Football League (VWFL) to assist in promoting women’s football in the ACT. The ACTWAFL continued its support for raising awareness of breast cancer and held a triple header of round games, with proceeds raised going to the Breast Cancer Council, with Guest appearance by our patron, the Hon. MP Ms Annette Ellis for the coin toss for the main game. The ACT representative team headed to Sydney for the 2006 Women’s AFL National Championships with new coaches Joe Box and Nathan Costigan. The trip was financially supported by the Canberra Labor Club, ACT Government and the Sportsmans Warehouse. The ACT had mixed results in this year’s Championships however we defeated our rivals NSW in a closely fought match in muddy conditions under lights. The ACT came away more determined than ever to improve in 2007. Congratulations to Riverina’s Kristin Ireland and Eastlake’s Emma Hender who were both selected to try out for the Australian Women’s International Rules team. Emma was selected and travelled to Ireland in October/November 2006 to play against Ireland’s gaelic football team. Sadly the team lost both matches against the strong Irish team. The ACTWAFL sees the opportunity to be selected to play and travel for an Australian team as something for players in the ACT to strive towards in their sport. This year’s ACTWAFL Grand Final was played on Manuka Oval between the two most dominant teams over the last few years- Eastlake and Tuggeranong. Eastlake proved to be too good for Tuggeranong in what was classed as typical football weather. The ACTWAFL looks forward to 2007 as we will host the Women’s AFL National Championships and also celebrate 10 years of women’s football in the ACT. The ACTWAFL will continue to promote women’s football in the ACT region through these events in an effort to increase participation in the game and further relationships with key stake holders. Finally, I would like to extend my thanks to the ACTWAFL committee, patrons and volunteers, whose commitment and application have contributed to yet another successful year for women’s football in the ACT region. Joanne Foster ACTWAFL President ACTWAFL President Jo Foster with Andrew Barr, ACT Minister for Sport and Recreation at Manuka oval Treasurer’s report 2005/06 has been a year of much effort and change in the Finance area. In December 2005, the ACTWAFL lodged the outstanding 2003/04 and 2004/05 financial statements with the ACT Registrar General. During 2006 the ACTWAFL migrated all financial information to MYOB, a professional accounting package, which can be used to complete the annual financial statements and record an annual budget. Adoption of this package is an important step for the ACTWAFL as it will enable: • further consistency and controls around the financial reporting process; • easier tracking of accruals; • better reporting to the Executive; and • better separation of the Rep Team and League funds. MYOB will automatically generate financial reports so that the Director of Finance can monitor progress against budget throughout the year. These reports will be presented at the monthly Executive meetings for the information of all Directors. A further significant change made in the Finance area by the ACTWAFL during 2006 was to change the financial year from July – June to November - October. This more closely aligns to our competition season and simplifies the accounting process as fewer accruals will be required at year end. The combination of the following factors: • unreliable comparative information; • the fact that no accruals were processed for the comparative year; and • a 15 month (rather than 12 month) current year (during transition); mean that detailed analysis of current year financial statements is difficult and relatively meaningless. However, the ACTWAFL can confidently say that we have maintained a cash balance of approximately $13,000, managed the ACT Representative Team expenditure effectively and captured detailed financial information for the league in 2006, which will allow better analysis in the future. The ACTWFL is in a solid financial position to continue operation of the league and efficient management of funds as well as accurately record and monitor expenditure for the hosting of the 2007 National Championships.

    MEDIA RELEASE - AFL (NSW/ACT) Wednesday, April 2 Henson Park to host five Sydney AFL matches this Saturday With the celebrations for 150 years of Australian Football underway, Sydney AFL will be creating some history of its own this weekend, with an entire round of senior football scheduled over one day at Henson Park for the season opener. This Saturday, footy fans will be treated to over 12 hours of Australian Football action, with all five Round One matches of the Sydney AFL taking place at the newly renovated facility. Henson Park, home of the Newtown Jets, has recently undergone a $250,000 upgrade, and this will be the first opportunity for Sydney AFL to take centre stage at the refurbished ground. Garry Burkinshaw, Senior Football Operations Coordinator for AFL (NSW/ACT) said that this was an exciting milestone for the Sydney AFL competition and signaled the leagues continued development as a premier sporting competition. “This is an important year for Australian Football across all levels of competition and Sydney AFL is no exception. As a competition the standard and support is growing rapidly and being able to provide fans with an entire day and night of Australian Football is a fantastic opportunity. “It is also the perfect platform to showcase some of the emerging talent coming through. Fans will be able to see the next generation of AFL stars in action with many of the NSW Rams players taking part in matches, along with some of the AFL Scholarship holders,” said Burkinshaw.

  • Community Club Sustainability Program Black Diamond AFL Player Points Criteria February 2018 the Background to the Community Club Sustainability Program
    FINAL Community Club Sustainability Program Black Diamond AFL Player Points Criteria February 2018 The background to the Community Club Sustainability Program AFL NSW/ACT believes that ensuring competitions are competitively balanced is critical to safeguarding the ongoing viability and sustainability of competitions and clubs. Even and fair competitions lead to increased interest and provide a better experience for stakeholders, which leads to stronger competitions and clubs. The future sustainability of community football will be built upon highly competitive leagues, where costs are controlled and are within the fundraising means of volunteer administrators. Competitive competitions enhance the experience for players, umpires, administrators and spectators. Competitive balance measures already exist in some leagues in NSW/ACT, however with AFL Victoria and the SANFL investing significant time and energy into the development of a state- wide system, AFL NSW/ACT are also implementing a similar regime to achieve improved competitive balance outcomes and also consistency across the states. The significant movement of players between community clubs, has been identified as a key issue affecting community football over the past 5-10 years. 2 Safeguarding the interests of Community Football The general philosophy behind the Community Club Sustainability Program is based on the following four objectives in the best interests of Community Football: 1) Assisting the equalisation of competitions 2) Promoting player loyalty and junior development 3) Improving the sustainability of Community Clubs 4) Supporting the role volunteers undertake in managing their clubs by: a) Capping the need to fundraise money for player payments b) Providing a more competitive environment on field, that encourages more volunteers to support at club level 3 Player Points System Explained The Player Points System was identified as a potential method to reduce the continuing movement between clubs.
