Our club is diverse and multicultural – with over 460 members represented. We would like to provide facilities for our female players who are growing in numbers and teams. Currently our female players do not have the facilities to change prior to or post games. We believe allocation of funds to our project will assist in meeting current player/club needs and state and federal government strategies. We also believe this project aligns strongly with Council's Strategy, which details growth in female participation in historically male dominated sports.
New female club teams continue to be established and this trend is expected to continue as more and more leagues, competitions and clubs establish dedicated girl's and women's teams and competitions. We believe sport provides significant benefits for individuals and communities both directly and indirectly. These benefits include individual health and wellbeing, satisfaction and engagement in community life, community pride in volunteering and efficient use of economic and government resources with reduced poor health, absenteeism and anti-social behaviour. Sport also provides significant economic benefits by creating employment to build and operate facilities.

Change rooms are exactly the same as they were in the 70’s when my husband played footy. Badly needs upgrading.

Rooms were built in early 60s with no concept of female participation. The facilities are not conducive to modern expectations or requirements

It would be great to know the young women in our lives who have chosen to play AFL can have the same privacy rights as the great young men in our lives!!!

There is absolutely no privacy for male or female in the current changerooms, extremely outdated. 1 toilet for 100’s of players.
