GENERAL MANAGER’S MESSAGE 2018 has been a very exciting year in the Northern Inland Football zone, as my first season as General Manager, I have watched and experienced what it feels like to be part of the football community, a community that is so passionate about its sport and a sport that is an integral part of our community. I would also like to recognise and thank the local and national businesses that support our local football community, to see the sponsors displayed and worn proudly by the players is a credit to all involved in building these community partnerships. Over the 2018 season we have seen close to 6,000 players take to the fields across our zone, with over 80% represented by players aged 18 years or younger and 25% of the players female, it is an exciting time to be involved with the World Game.
