We unite as a football family.

We celebrate through the Australian Football Awards.

From children playing football for their local club or school through to players representing Australia at the highest international level, the Australian Football Awards recognise our football family.

Players at a professional and non professional level, volunteers, coaches and referees all form the fabric of Australia’s rich football tapestry.

Following the success of the inaugural year, in 2010 we are again looking forward to recognising players at a professional and non professional level, as well as volunteers, coaches, referees and the team of the year. It is an opportunity to celebrate our entire football family.

Details for the 2010 Australian Football Awards can be found in the information pack attached

We are in an era where volunteers, be they coaches, officials or administrators, are needed more than ever and even just a nomination for such an award can be thanks enough for a long term hard working volunteer.

FFNT supports in principle the concept of having a Northern Territory football team play in an Asian League in the future. In regards to the current proposal that has been put forward by a Darwin-based consortium led by Paul Parker for a team to play in next seasons Singapore league, FFNT neither has enough information to judge it nor is there any support from the FFA.
The FFNT will only support this proposal on a condition that FFA and the Asian Football Confederation gives their approval. The FFNT Board also need to be satisfied with the business plans, financials, feasibility studies and any other relevant documentation which will make this initiative a strong and viable concern for the long term that will benefit Territory football.
The Darwin-based consortium appreciate FFNT's position on this proposal and inturn FFNT appreciates the consortium's sentiments on this matter.
