Welcome to your Football NT Portal

North Queensland Fury defeated Adelaide United 3-2, in front of a large crowd at the Larrakia Park Football Stadium on Thursday 2nd July 2009. 
Darwin's own, John Tambouras received the winning trophy from Chief Minister Paul Henderson as captain of the Fury.

In an announcement made today by Darwin Lord Mayor Graeme Sawyer and Chief Minister Paul Henderson, Bagot Oval will receive a much needed upgrade.

This is a joint initiative between Council and the Northern Territory Government, with majority of funds being provided by Council. It is great to see the two organisations banding together in investing in the future of football.

The upgrade will include:

• New subgrade and turf for ovals
• Excavation works
• New irrigation system

Works should be completed by the end of the year, ready for the 2010 season.

Glenn Thompson was awarded the Community Services Award at the inaugural 2009 Australian Football Awards. For more than a decade, Glenn Thompson has been a proud supporter of football and has been instrumental in promoting the game in the remote town of Borroloola.

The Board of FFNT and its CEO have put together its Strategic Key Elements document. You are now invited to make your comments. Please forward responses back to ceo@footballnt.com.au . There is plenty of time for you to respond, but ideally we would love to have responses back by the end of May.
