Thank you for spending a couple of minutes to ensure Hills Football is the recipient of a $200,000 grant thanks to the NSW Government My Community Project.

Each electorate in the state has been awarded $260,000 to be awarded to the project with the highest amount of votes.

What’s our project about?

Children aged 3-5 enrolled within Community based Childcare centres will be educated on the importance of physical activity, social interaction, team work, discipline, whilst improving their gross motor skills in a safe, inclusive and diverse environment, using recognised Football techniques to deliver these life skills. The program also includes a Participation Pack, allowing them to use the learnt skills outside of the program or with siblings and friends.

Hills Footballs Football for All program is a pathway to Community football, using football as a vessel for life skills. The community/participants will use the skills and opportunity given in this Program to seamlessly integrate into Club Football. We believe football should be available to every demographic within our Community and view this as a perfect way to connect this demographic to our Wonderful Hills Community.

Hills Football will offer this program to all Community based Childcare Centres within the Hills Shire, using our established model currently operational through Private Childcare centres. We have the operational processes and resources to deliver this program just not the funds provide this service to the Community based Childcare Centres whose parents struggle to afford this luxury for their children. This program will be the first of its kind in Australia.

Why should you vote for this project?

  • This program is the first of its kind in Australia.
  • Disadvantaged Children will be offered the opportunity to engage in an organised Football Program free of charge.
  • Gives an otherwise not available option, for Children to feel included in community Football and learn life skills through Football.
