Want to Join The Club
Volunteers are the backbone of every Australian Football club: no club could manage without them, including those in the premier league.
From coaches at Auskick to the helpers in the canteen to the scorers diligently collecting stats to the administrators organising matches and managing the website, volunteers are what make Australian Football tick.
The dedication and support of volunteers drawn from families and members get the Club’s teams out on the park each week of each season. Every family has a role and every family is needed. We couldn’t do it without you!
Volunteering is also the best way to immerse yourself in the club. Meet new people, feel a sense of community and belonging and be a great role model for your kids.
“Volunteers do not necessarily have the time; they just have the heart.” — Elizabeth Andrew
