AFL VIC Community Volunteer Awards: NOMINATE NOW


29 JUN 2022 BY: AFL VICTORIA

Nominations are now open for the AFL Victoria Community Volunteer Awards and we are calling on community football clubs and leagues to nominate a valued member of your local footy community.

Volunteers are the heart and soul of Community Football and now is the time to nominate an individual for special recognition.

The AFL Victoria Community Awards will follow a slightly different process this year and will be linked to the TOYOTA AFL National Volunteer Awards. For the AFL Victoria awards which have an equivalent National Award, the Victorian winner will be the State’s nomination in the National Awards.
