Player Points System implementation at VAFA Conference

Player Points System implementation at VAFA Conference

VAFA Football Operations Manager, Sam Confait, will commence Saturday’s VAFA Conference with a detailed one-hour session on the state-wide Player Points System set to be implemented as part of the Community Club Sustainability Program in 2016.

The PPS is an AFL Victoria Working Party policy aimed at addressing the rising equalisation concerns in community football and ensuring opposing teams are as closely matched as possible.

VAFA Chief Executive Officer, Michael Sholly, said it bodes as the ideal setting for Club officials to learn the complexities of the PPS while implementing the system during the session.

“It is the biggest development in community football in Victoria’s history,” he said.

AFL Victoria released its finalised policy in October last year but noted due to the structure of our Association there were still areas in need of attention.

“AFL Victoria Working Party continues to work with the Victorian Amateur Football Association to ensure the framework they adopt caters for the unique nature of their competition, including Club alignments to schools and tertiary institutions and the non-payments of players”, the article read.

“A maximum of 50 total team points has been allocated to all clubs across the state, with the AFL Working Party giving further flexibility to Metropolitan Leagues and Region Commissions to apply either a one or two-point reduction for players that have met the season of service clause in 2015, to participate with the same club in 2016.”

The Player Points System session will commence at 9:30am in the K309 Theatre at Monash University, Caulfield.
