In 2019 local football and netball were flourishing. Participation in Women's football had grown at an amazing rate. Junior and senior participation were at outstanding levels. The 2020 season promised a continued surge in participation............and then it was cancelled. Research shows that community football and netball in Australia has a 10:1 reach. That means for every participant, there are another 10 people who benefit It also shows that every $1 invested in local football generates $440 in social value, improving employment outcomes, mental wellbeing and personal development. They are big numbers, but what happens when all senior and junior football / netball gets cancelled because of Covid-19? and perhaps more importantly, how do we recover? Will McGregor had a successful playing career. His passion for the game led him to a career managing the game that has included a stint at AFL HQ, and saw him appointed to the Region General Manager role in 2018. At this unique Culture First event we hear from Will about: - The season that wasn't - Challenges he faced during the year - Key decisions he has had to make as a business leader - Disappointments & Surprises - Lessons learned - The role of Culture - How he is planning for what comes next During the event there will be a number of breakouts to discuss some of these questions and implications for those attending.
