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.
