  • 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.
