AFL Bronze Accreditation: Great news from the SMJFL committee desk this week in the news that the mighty SBMTAFC has achieved the AFL Quality Club accreditation Bronze status. The AFL program is all about the development of the football club as a whole. To successfully achieve the award the Club has to undergo an “Audit” across a large range of topics. From policy and procedure to coaching staff accreditations and facilities, it is a wide ranging audit that when achieved ensures that the club is conforming to what is the AFL’s best practice model.
To the right is the Logo that comes with the accreditation, you will see this on all our documentation in the near future, It’s a vote of confidence that your football club continues working towards providing the best possible outcome for all players and supporters from Auskick through to our Division 1 seniors. A special thank you the SMJFL committee who have taken on the challenge of achieving our initial accreditation, but it doesn’t end there. The club is committed to continuing on down this path and challenging ourselves to achieve Silver status in 2014. This recognition is the culmination of many years of work by committees past and present and one that we should celebrate. Funding and other benefits are made available to AFL accredited clubs so it is a highly valued prize.
