The WA Football Facility of the Year Award annually recognises best practice in community football facility development across the state.
The award aims to promote and celebrate the provision of well positioned, welcoming, accessible, fit for purpose football facilities that support our growing game’s strategic priorities.
Western Australia’s winning project will be nominated for the National AFL Ken Gannon Community Football Facilities Awards.
PROJECT CRITERIA
Matching supply of venues for our growing game’s needs is one of our sport’s biggest challenges and is a key part of our WA Football Strategic Facilities Plan 2020-2030. Three overarching facility pillars have been developed to guide our resourcing in terms of infrastructure:
• Sustainability - Deliver inclusive and sustainable facilities that respond to demand and are operationally viable.
• Partnerships - Partner with all levels of government, clubs and other sports to improve our network of industry stakeholders.
• Investment - Continue to highlight the needs and benefits of investment in football infrastructure, in particular the social, economic and wellbeing benefits football provides to the community.
Projects should deliver one or more of the following WA Football Strategic Facility Targets:
• Lighting – Provide a minimum 100 lux lighting at all primary club ovals.
• Gender Neutral Amenities - All venues to provide suitable amenities for all participants.
• New Facilities - Partner with government to deliver new ovals and amenities in growth areas.
