Hyundai’s ‘Goals for Grassroots’ program
Since the initiation of Hyundai’s ‘Goals for Grassroots’ program back in 2007, Hyundai has donated over $300,000 to more than125 junior football clubs across Australia. (Figures as at the end of the 2011/2012 Hyundai A-League season).
Hyundai’s grassroots support program is designed to help promote the game of football within local communities by offering financial assistance to junior clubs throughout the Hyundai A-League season.
During each round, a grassroots club will be selected for the pre-determined ‘Goals for Grassroots’ game of the week. On top of an array of match day benefits that include match tickets and an on field presentation, the lucky junior club is guaranteed a grant of $1,000. However, it is during the match that the excitement levels raise another notch as an additional $1,000 is added to the tally for every goal that the home team scores - up to a maximum of $10,000 per game.
In order to be eligible for selection, grassroots clubs complete an application form at www.goalsforgrassroots.com.au and submit why they believe the club should be selected. Junior clubs can even support their application with photos or short videos.
(Note: To be eligible to enter, grassroots clubs must belong to an association affiliated to Football Federation Australia.)
