Funding for ground breaking Football study
Melbourne’s north could be home to a new premier league football facility with funding for a new study. Carlo Carli MP announced details of a ground breaking study into football (soccer) facilities across the north west region of metropolitan Melbourne at the football forum - a meeting of Moreland based football clubs at Dunstan Reserve in Brunswick West.$60,000 has been provided by the State Government to enable Moreland, Moonee Valley and Hume Councils to consider and adopt a regional approach for the provision of premier league football facilities (soccer) in the north-west region of Melbourne.
The study will identify demonstrated and expected demand, prescribe required standards and recommend the most appropriate venue for a regional facility based on a detailed evaluation process.
Sport is an important part of our social fabric in our community and soccer is a big part of our sporting culture. The drought has exposed some frailties in the current provision of resources and we need to explore new ways of handling the current and expected growth of football, especially juniors and women.
This new study will help inform the decisions of clubs, councils and other decision makers into the future.
The project control group will include Moreland City Council, Moonee Valley City Council, Hume City Council, Melbourne City Council and Sport and Recreation Victoria. It will seek direct input from a number of local football clubs, including Fawkner Blues, Essendon Royals, North Coburg United, Brunswick City, Pascoe Vale, Maryibrnong Greens and Moreland City.
