The Standing Committees were established by Football NSW to represent the interests of various stakeholders in Football in NSW.
The Standing Committees are important vehicles for assisting Football NSW in achieving a better environment and value equation for the Football community.
This includes all participants in our game, including players (men and women, elite and grassroots, junior and senior), coaches, referees, administrators and the broader Football community. Football NSW is committed to using these vehicles to provide opportunities for openness, transparency and inclusiveness with the broader Football community.
The terms of reference of each of the Standing Committees are set out in Schedule 3 of the Football NSW By-Laws.
Call for Nomination
With the terms of current Standing Committee members due to expire on 31 December 2019, Football NSW is now calling for nominations for membership of Standing Committees for the period 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2021.
Nominees must ensure they carefully read the Football NSW By-Laws, the Standing Committee Member Nomination Guidelines and the Standing Committee FAQ, all of which are available below, as non-compliant Nomination Forms may result in their nomination not being accepted.
The Board and management of Football NSW look forward to working with each of the Standing Committees to continue to achieve a better environment and value equation for the Football community.
