Local football at Community level gets nothing currently. Seemingly it is the same in the other zones and Northern Inland have shown that a change in governance is not a bad thing. Make it happen and get in with giving back to the Clubs.
I believe one of the reasons the clubs don’t get as much as they should is because the Zones have to pay 100s of thousands of dollars of fees back into Northern at the end of each season. So you ask why local football get nothing? Maybe you should direct that question towards Northern? If the zones kept that money maybe community football would get its fair share instead of most of it being spent on Northerns junior development programs.
