Club Management

Club volunteers and administrators make a significant contribution to Australian Football across the country.  AFL Northern Territory recognises the demands on club volunteers and administrators are increasing along with the need for clubs to operate in a more professional manner.

The AFL Club management modules have been developed through intensive consultation with volunteers and administrators.  The following six modules have been identified as the main priority areas of assistance required by community football clubs:

Risk Management
Volunteer Management
Community Partnerships
Financial Management
Junior Development
Planning

If you think that one or more of these modules would benefit your club, please contact Jack Arnold at AFL Northern Territory.
