Junior Footys Great Supporter
 

Over the past few years, the Newcomb Power Football Club has introduced award winning junior programs which work with local schools. Record levels of participation and a growing number of teams has meant Building better facilities for players, coaches, volunteers and fans with a view to encouraging more locals.

 

The primary foci of the programs are to engage young people who would not have the opportunity (usually financially) to take part in football and to get children into healthy activities.  Both boys and girls take part in the programs. The programs have been so successful, that the club is now considering using the model on their Netball program.

This will give the club the space they need to grow, store equipment and provide greater

flexibility to train and win avid junior FC players, Newcomb Power Netball Club

and Newcomb Cricket Club.

 

The Community Service Committee of The Geelong East saw the need and worked with Newcomb to provide financial support. The Rotary club has been a major sponsor providing the club with a $6000 district grant. Newcomb FC has also played an integral part in supporting our main events like the Geelong Show BBQ, Bunnings Sausage Sizzles and for this received a further $1500 and $200.
