PLAYER & COMMUNITY SUPPORT
The true essence of community is authentic, respectful and meaningful connection between its members. At Ormond Amateur Football Club our community includes our players, their leadership groups, our volunteers, sponsors and of course, our supporters.
The heart of community football success is talent, absolutely and also opportunity, leadership, holistic support and optimal wellbeing. Without positive community wellbeing, attracting talent is made more difficult, opportunities are harder to attain, leadership is challenged and success lies outside our grasp.
In 2025 we continue to embed and evolve our wellbeing supports, inclusive of:
🏉tailored support of our leadership group
🏉provision of personalised wellbeing options for all community members
🏉ongoing connection for those injured or unable to play
🏉investment in players’ voices being heard and represented and
achieving an environment where all members feel safe, welcome and engaged in the Ormond Amateur Football Club community.
