Introduction The North West Structural Review Panel (the Panel) advises that it has concluded the 2014/15 North West Structural Review. Consultation with the Clubs and Leagues was extensive with open and honest discussions forming the basis of the preliminary recommendations presented previously. The Panel has now established final recommendations that follow later in this document.

PROJECT SCOPE STATEMENT:

The 2014-15 NWSR is commissioned to establish qualitative and quantitative data to form the basis on which recommendations for the optimal structure of football competitions in North Western Victoria for season 2016 and beyond. A Review Panel, appointed by AFL Central Victoria, AFL Central Murray & AFL Wimmera Mallee Management, will manage the review with scope that shall extend to interviews, consultation and subsequent recommendations with all stakeholders referred to within this document. AFL Sunraysia will be consulted and approval sought for any recommendations concerning their region. Following the completion of the consultations and analysis of the data obtained, preliminary recommendations will be established and presented to the various stakeholders for feedback. Final recommendations will then be established for the consideration by each Governing body’s board/Commission. Recommendations approved by each Board/Commission shall be expected to be implemented for season 2016 with adherence to each body’s Rules and Regulations. Time Line

Draft Report 30th April 2015

Stakeholder feedback 29th May 2015

Final Report 30th June 2015

PROJECT BACKGROUND and RATIONALE: The structure of community football competitions in the North West of Victoria has been the subject

of general discussion for a number of years. The short term viability of clubs is at risk under the

current structure. At present there is a great deal of perceived uncertainty within the footballing

community in the North West of Victoria, with the majority of this centered on the Mallee Football

League. Additional to this uncertainty is the current environment of clubs wishing to move Leagues

for the 2015 season in an unmanaged random manner. The three named Commissions therefore

have identified the review process to best manage short to longer term structures to achieve the

objectives.


PROJECT OBJECTIVES AND DELIVERABLES: To provide a coordinated approach in reviewing all competition structures of Community Football in

the North West of Victoria to ascertain the best longer term competition structures that best serve

football and the sustainability of clubs and leagues into the future. This project shall provide the

three Commissions with qualitative and quantitative statistical data, informed local knowledge and a

comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing football in this area to guide the

establishment of appropriate recommendations. The following areas will be discussed with each

organisation:

Database Statistics (football and communities)

Competition Structure

League Structure/Management

Financial (organisations will asked to bring a copy of their audited financials for both 2013 and 2014)

Junior Structure

Umpires

Facilities

Volunteers

Travel

Other General Comments or Suggestions to achieve the optimal structure

The Panel initially conducted an online survey to gain preliminary data from clubs which, in turn,

directed the consultation process. 82% of clubs completed this survey.

The Panel has conducted 67 interviews with clubs, groups and associations involved throughout February and March across the review catchment region within the North West of Victoria. The review covers approximately 30% of the state of Victoria plus 9 affiliated clubs in NSW. The Panel wish to state that opportunity from key personnel from all stakeholders has been offered and in the main taken up by the vast majority. This included every club within the review catchment area.


Overview The preliminary recommendations have taken into consideration the following factors

1. All suggestions/options put forward during the initial survey or interview process a. Including widespread acknowledgement of a

i. Need for change for the longer term benefit of football across the region ii. Need to address the inequitable current environment

iii. Need to protect the value of Clubs to Communities 2. Demographic statistics of the area, both at club and league level and of the communities

within the review area. 3. Participation numbers, trends and penetration for AFL in the region 4. Need for a longer term solution to provide optimal and sustainable junior and senior

participation and development in our sport. 5. The need to maintain optimal number of clubs within the region to ensure travel & distance

does not become a bigger obstacle on participation 6. Need for an area wide structure to deliver a fluent pathway from Auskick to Senior Football

that: a. Provides a high level local quality ‘ football league option within reach of all

communities b. Provides a range of competitions to cater for players of a range of talent c. Allows netball to continue to flourish alongside our sport


Key General Findings

STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION

Overall clubs constantly need to increase resources to either be competitive or just field teams each

week. Club feedback indicates such an increase is unsustainable in the short to medium term.

Individual resource areas are:

1. Junior Player Number Shortages: under the current Leagues Junior structures, up to 50% of

clubs are unable to adequately field the required players within the 2 and/or 3 year age

groupings. This shortage results in the requirement of junior players to fill in at a higher age

group therefore playing multiple games on the one day or playing “out of their age”

expectation as depicted by the AFL’s “Junior Football, This is our game Match Guide”.

Many clubs across the region no longer field teams within certain age levels, this trend is

increasing which further places the entire club at risk.

2. Senior Player Number Shortages: similar issues to junior, however clubs have the capacity

(in most cases) to recruit senior players into their clubs to fill this void. This recruitment has

changed over time with clubs continually seeking players from increased distance to

maintain their club senior numbers. Some more remote clubs recruitment is stalling

regardless of wages & conditions offered, they are simply unable to spend their budgeted

player payment allocation. We are still seeing many men aged in the 40’s and in some cases

50’s making up the numbers in reserves.

3. Increased Player Payments: in business terms it is a sellers’ market. Clubs are telling us that

this escalation in player payments is unsustainable.

4. Increased cost of doing business: Clubs are continually seeking to raise additional income to

combat increased costs, which places an ever increasing financial burden on clubs.

5. Inequitable Playing Field:

a. Distribution of players both Senior & Junior

b. No or poorly designed equalisation measures (apart from CMFNL & SFL Points

System)

c. Distance from opponents incurring additional travel

d. Distance from major recruiting grounds

e. Ability to raise finances

f. Ability and/or willingness to pay players

g. Facilities

6. Volunteer Burnout: many club representatives said it is all getting too hard and we’re getting

tired.

7. Generally netball numbers are strong and participation numbers fit the current structure,

many leagues have included additional competitions within their structure over the past few

years.


DATA ANALYSIS:

8. Demographic data, trends and forecasts all point to the same scenario that population

across the review catchment will remain in decline. This decline will vary from region to

region, however will decline similar to current trends that the more rurally remote the

centre the larger the trend.

9. Mildura, Swan Hill & Horsham are the three centres within the review catchment that are

experiencing population growth, albeit relatively small (0.2% to 1.2%) and heavily skewed

towards retiree’s. Because of these numbers the three Rural Cities form the most heavily

targeted recruiting zones within the region.

10. The Sunraysia region and Mildura more generally is the exception within the region. The

larger population base, less transient player population and the lowest penetration rates

across the region, all suggest the region can maintain the current structures and with

targeted development could increase participation.

11. Therefore all data suggests a continued decline in the player availability pool and a

continued increase in inequitable distribution.

12. Department of Education forecasts concur, that enrolment figures outside of the 3 major

Rural Cities will continue to decline.

AVAILABLE SOLUTIONS

All stakeholders and The Panel agree that given the overall issues football is facing, the simple fact is

that we no longer have the available players to fill all positions in the current structure and format.

Therefore it was also generally agreed that some changes are needed. When put to stakeholders the

following list was generally agreed to contain all available solutions to the above general statement.

1. Amalgamations

2. Reduction in competition structures

3. Reduce on field player numbers

4. Construct better distribution networks (including capping junior numbers)

5. Increase participation rates (Sunraysia Region)

6. AFL Victoria Equalisation Policy

BEING MINDFUL OF All DECISIONS NEED TO BE:

1. In the best interest of football

2. Optimise playing participation levels

3. Understand the Social importance of Clubs to Communities

4. Consider the welfare of players (especially juniors)


Special Considerations

1. After the announcement of the North West Structural Review AFL Victoria announced

following a club survey on player payments the “Player Points System/Salary Cap” working

party, since being renamed the “Equalisation” working party. This body is engaged in

establishing a Victoria wide community policy surrounding a points system with an

embedded salary cap with the express desire to equalise the footballing environment and

reduce the upper limits being currently paid to individuals. Given that the policy is due for

implementation in season 2016 and the subsequent effects will only be witnessed over an

implementation period (2 years) the panel deem it wise to allow time for this

implementation to take effect. Therefore major restructuring is seen as pre-empting a policy

shift that could have a positive effect on equalisation. Although criteria based minimum

adherence policy for continuation within a league is part of these preliminary

recommendations.

2. It is also generally acknowledged that due to distance & location of clubs, within the

catchment area, maintenance of sufficient numbers of clubs is required: otherwise travel

will become a more prevalent issue and an increased defection driver.

3. There will be a cultural shift requirement for the above point (2) to be realised. Although

clubs are generally concerned with the strength of their opponents the opposite is reflected

in reality. Unless a culture that allows for equalisation methods to be implemented arises,

“strong” clubs will continue to get stronger and “weaker” clubs weaker, resulting in further

increased uncompetitive environments.

4. The panel has available data on the major defection drivers within junior football having

access to two junior reviews conducted (Wimmera/Horsham District 2012 and Mornington

Peninsula 2014). The major cause of defection was attributed to players not enjoying the

game and having fun. The root cause of this is the uncompetitive inequitable nature of junior

football.


Overview of Stakeholder feedback

The continued general consensus that the current footballing environment does

require change to cater for current needs

That any change has to be given time for clubs to adapt prior to full implementation

An overall general reluctance to reduce on field playing numbers in the premier grade

within individual leagues (GRFL, HDFNL, Mill FL), maintenance of 18 per side is seen as

vital to the overall standing of the competition.

A clear direction to ensure junior age groups are consistent across neighbouring

leagues

A very clear direction that Under 17 be the highest junior age grouping (SFNL being the

exception)

An overall acceptance that the welfare of participants is important in maintaining

longevity in the game, although many stakeholders believe it is more important to fill

the current structure than reduce the requirement for multiple games for individuals

Overwhelming support for a time based minimum criteria to work in conjunction with

the AFL Victoria Community Club Sustainability Program.

Governing Panel Overview The Governing Panel has taken into account through their deliberations all factors that are

contributed to the game of AFL in the North West of Victoria with the guiding principle

being “to ascertain the best longer term competition structures that best serve football

and the sustainability of clubs and leagues into the future”.

Through the entire review process the overwhelming direction from stakeholders is;

A need for change to deliver longer term sustainable futures

A need to address current inequitable circumstances

The need to protect the value of clubs to communities, where possible

The Governing Panel after consideration of all factors delivered the preliminary

recommendations in the manner, “in light of the current information, statistics and club

consultation, the preliminary recommendations are indicators of where the structure

requires to be to cater for the current resources (especially participants)”.

The Governing Panel is conscious of the feedback from many clubs together with the

Community Club Sustainability Program the requirement of providing time to meet these

expectations.


Together with the Club Minimum Standards Criteria and the Community Club

Sustainability Program the Panel acknowlges that some preliminary recommendations

concerned with player welfare will need time for Clubs & Leagues to devise structural

change to adapt

That this adaption be driven by leagues and clubs in conjunction with their respective

Commissions.

What this now means, is that clubs & leagues have a timeframe to construct their local

structure to best meet the needs and resources available to comply with the criteria.

The Panel also understands the requirement to work with local leagues to initiate the

established recommended junior alterations as derived from data and club feedback. This

process will aim to be completed prior to the conclusion of the 2015 season.

The Panel is conscious of the requirement of clubs to concern themselves firstly with their

responsibilities to oneself. However in such an unequal climate there is an ongoing and

increasing requirement for clubs to be responsible for the overall football environment for

stability and continuality. This in itself requires cultural change, which will take time but is

emerging slowly.

The Panel thank all stakeholders for their input through this process and look forward to

assisting the implementation of the recommendations over the coming seasons.


Final Recommendations

Immediate - 2016

Mallee based:

1. That the Mallee FL be wound up at the end of season 2015.

2. Ouyen United & Walpeup Underbool amalgamate and compete in the Sunraysia FL in 2016.

The Panel consider given all available options for the individual clubs, their current

registrations that the SFNL structure would best suit and provide the ultimate development

opportunities.

3. Sea Lake Nandaly Tigers & Woomelang Lascelles:

Additional time will be required to ensure club/league/commission negotiation to be

finalised, therefore the original preliminary recommendations shall remain unchanged

during this time frame.

Preferred option - SLNT & W/L Amalgamate and compete in the Central Murray FNL in 2016.

The Panel considers the current strength of the individual senior/reserves grades in an

amalgamated format would be better suited within the Premier local Competition, as well

with the proposed alterations to the CMFNL Junior structure the combined teams would be

able to field competitive junior teams. This would also be evident within the netball

structure.

AFL Wimmera Mallee to directly oversee process and individual club outcome fairness.

Alternative option - SLNT and W/L remain separate entities and move to either North

Central FL or Golden Rivers FL. However the panel considers either of these options to be

only short term or less than satisfactory in competition strengths and/or distance.

4. Southern Mallee Giants move to the Horsham District FNL. The panel consider the

geographical location, player drift and recruiting opportunities of the SMG will become more

focused southward. The Panel acknowledges Club feedback and concern regarding the

overall strength and recruiting capacity of the SMG’s: however the AFL Victoria Community

Club Sustainability Program will ensure a level playing field across the competition.

Additionally a 12 team HDFNL competition will allow for selective draws that mitigate

additional travel.

Other individual direct to club/s recommendations:

5. Wakool FC amalgamate with Barham Koondrook and compete in the CMFNL

During the club consultation phase the Wakool FC representatives expressed that the time

is current to explore amalgamation with their immediate closest neighboring club in

Barham Koondrook.


Similar to point 3, the panel will provide additional time for the parties to conduct

negotiations and if not fruitful would then fall back into the time frame for the Club

Minimum Criteria to become established.

The Panel understands that negotiated amalgamations are preferable, rather than the

alternative forced mergers of clubs.

General - Immediate

6. Under 17’s be the highest junior underage group (except for Sunraysia due to higher level of

population vs clubs and participation trends)

a. General overage policy implemented as per attached policy (Appendix 1)

* Leagues in conjunction with their Commissions are recommended to explore options to

provide competition or game structure for participants that have outlived Auskick and are

too young to be included in the lowest age group.

8. Above age groups initiated with a player equalisation rule be firmly introduced (Appendix 2)

9. A broad-based cap of 28 junior registrations per age group (Age specific- U/17 to include

17/16/15 year old players only, U/14 to include 14/13/12 year old players only)within an

individual club across all leagues. Allowances to be considered on merit include clubs:

a. That their nearest neighbor is further than 40kms away and or clubs within that

perimeter have reached the cap ceiling.

b. That can show that player registrations across two adjoining age groups do not

exceed the combined total of 56/84 depending on competition levels within the

league.

c. Cap to be reviewed at the conclusion of the 2016 season

10.

The maximum number of games any individual junior player be allowed to participate in

one season (includes all grades) be 28 for season 2016 and reduce to 25 by 2018. Games to

be home and away league scheduled games.

All other competition levels, player numbers to be continued as per league dictated policy

with the following principles to be considered in line with the future adoption of the

Minimum Criteria

a. Junior players to play within their respective age group age range

b. Junior players be encouraged to play at senior level if appropriately developed

c. Playing numbers in reserves be adjustable to ensure juniors are not required to play

two matches, this does not limit a “junior” player only playing reserves if considered

appropriately developed and numbers allow

d. All games be played with equal on field numbers

e. Clubs are encouraged to lend players rather than juniors playing two games on the

one day

f. Leagues to adopt rules that allow for games to be played as official games with less

than 14 players if required

g. Reduce on field dimensions to suit player numbers as required

Sunraysia playing numbers remain at current levels

12.

a. AFL Regional Commissions to create the communication network that enables

players to locate a club and clubs deficient in numbers to locate available/excess

players.

13. That all clubs that have separate Junior & Senior Incorporated Clubs set in place a

management process to formally amalgamate into the one entity by the end of the 2015/16

financial year. This is seen as vital to ensure a smoother pathway from junior to senior

competition, which will become increasingly important under the AFL Victoria Equalisation

Policy.


Future Recommendations (implemented on or before the 2018 season)

This time frame is provided to allow for the AFL Victoria Community Club Sustainability Program

implementation and any effects to become established.

14. A criteria based formula (Appendix 4) be implemented that sets minimum standards that an

individual club must achieve to remain in their chosen league structure, based on:

a. Senior/Reserves participation numbers

b. Junior participation numbers

c. Substantiated future numbers

d. Netball participation numbers

e. Financial position

f. Adherence to AFL Victoria Equalisation Policy

Before they must investigate in conjunction with their AFL Victoria Country Commission

their options to sustain those minimum standards through amalgamation or other options.

15. For the welfare of all junior participants the maximum allowable age range be:

Age Group Maximum Allowable range

Under 18 3 years

Under 17 4 years

Under 16 4 years

Under 14 4 years

Under 13 4 years

Under 12 4 years

Under 10 4 years

Note; for the Under 18 age group this would mean players turning 18, 17 & 16 within the year.

Note; For Sunraysia FNL, all age groups with a 3 year allowable range

16. That each Commission initiate a working party to continually evaluate the league

environment with a view to establishing the Minimum Criteria by 2018. Working Party to be

made up of representatives from; the Commission, League’s, Clubs, Local Government Authority

and Community representation.


Commission Priorities

The following recommendations will become integral aspects of the local Commissions short term

priority structure with the view to addressing prior to the 2016 season.

16. Revamp of Auskick locally to become focused on fun and learning the game and the

importance of transitioning into junior competitive football

17. Investigate competitive age specific games for children that have outlived Auskick and are

currently out of the lowest age competition structure of the league

18. Education focus on the purpose of junior coaches and the importance of retaining a greater

percentage of players through to open age football

19. Presidents Accreditation Program be offered as Personal Development for all current and

future club presidents

20. Divisional Structure criteria to be investigated and implemented to include promotion &

relegation across the leagues of CMFNL/GRFL and the WFL/HDFNL to allow for clubs to find

their appropriate competition level.

21. AFL Central Victoria to conduct review into viability of the current league structures(timing

to be at AFL Central Vic’s discretion).

22. AFL Sunraysia to conduct investigation into creating an Alignment Structure between the

SFNL league clubs and the Millewa League Clubs.

Equalisation Policy

Aim: To provide football for grades, other than the Senior grade, where insufficient numbers exist prior to a match commencing Spirit of the Policy

To have a game played

To maximise player involvement Procedures

Even playing numbers on the field at the commencement of the match and at all times afterwards.

If one team has less than the desired number of players then both teams must have the same number of players on the ground

In the above scenario the team with less than 18 players cannot have players on the interchange, unless by agreement between both clubs

Field umpires in control of the match to be made aware of the agreement

Excess players (above the agreed starting number) will form an extended interchange bench

Clubs are encouraged to liaise with each other with respect to team numbers should (1) or both teams have trouble fielding required players on the field

On loan players must appear on the teamsheet of the team they represent on the day and be indicated as “on loan players”

Loaned players are unable to change teams mid match

Players may be loaned to even up the numbers and give more players game time with less players on the bench
