    Community Club Sustainability Program Overview April 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 balance measures already exist in some leagues in NSW/ACT, however with AFL Victoria investing significant time and energy into the development of a state-wide system, AFL NSW/ACT are now implementing a similar regime to achieve improved competitive balance outcomes and also consistency across the states. While more relevant to some leagues than others, the significant movement of players between community clubs and the lack of focus on junior/ senior alignment and youth development across community leagues, has been identified as a key issue affecting the sustainability of community football. 2 The national direction to ensure the future sustainability of competitions and clubs …. • In 2015, the AFL undertook a national Future Directions of Australian Football project which, amongst other things, made a series of recommendations to drive future growth and sustainability of state and community football. • The Future Directions of Australian Football report (2016) recommended the implementation a competitive balance framework for state and community football competitions across Australia to address sustainability, youth development and competitiveness issues. • In South Australia and Victoria, all community leagues have adopted a standard Community Club Sustainability Program which includes a player points system and a salary cap.
