NPL Update
It is with great regret and disappointment that the FFV Board announces that the National Premier Leagues (NPL) will not be introduced in 2014.
As many clubs are aware FFV is defending court action in the Supreme Court of Victoria brought by two Zone Representatives.
FFV was ready to announce successful applicants for the 2014 NPL on 29 September 2013 but was restrained by a court order from doing so.
In good faith FFV attended mediation recently with the Plaintiffs regarding the NPL. The FFV Board was unable to reach a sustainable agreement with the Plaintiffs.
Therefore, 2014 will be a normal year complying with FFV’s Rules of Competition.
FFV is committed to introducing a NPL in the future that:
• Embraces Victoria
• Provides clear pathways for talented males and females
• Provides equal opportunity for boys and girls
• Is affordable
• Meets FFA requirements
• Meets FFV’s strategic plan
