Volunteers and Coaches are the life-blood of community football; without their input and assistance, AFL would simply not exist. To acknowledge the dedication and passion of some of NSW and ACT’s hardest working contributors, the AFL (NSW/ACT) is calling for nominations of two awards - AFL NSW/ACT Volunteer of the Year and AFL NSW/ACT Coach of the year.
Each club, league or association is asked to read the attached criteria and then nominate a volunteer and a coach who they think deserves the status of being named the 2009 AFL NSW/ACT Volunteer or Coach of the Year for their region(see below). Once all regions winners have been decided a state winner for each category will be announced. Both winners will be awarded flights, accommodation and 2 tickets to the 2009 Toyota AFL Grand Final.
