AFL VOLUNTEER RECOGNITION AWARD

VOLUNTEER RECOGNITION 2010

The AFL State Volunteer of the Year Program is a volunteer recognition program that is part of the legacy of the 150 year celebrations in 2008. The program which commenced as part of the Australian Football 150 years celebration rewards seven outstanding volunteers with a trip of lifetime for them and a partner.

Each club, league or association is invited to nominate an outstanding volunteer as an AFL State Volunteer of the Year. The volunteer may have contributed to the completion of a major or significant project throughout the year or they may be someone who has contributed in a number of roles over a long period.

Each state and territory will evaluate the nominations and ultimately will determine their State Volunteer of the Year.

2. Must be a willing, voluntary contributor, having received no income from football (NB honoraria excepted).
