EQUAL OPPORTUNITY
We believe that racism and prejudice should have no place in football.
Football helps to unite our differences through diversity and equality
At ACFA, we are an equal opportunity Academy. No matter what your skin colour is, your gender, your nationality, or your sexual orientation. We believe that we are all here to learn and to train for the great game of football.
Our players and visitors can enjoy a professional and supportive environment where we are all encouraged to achieve the highest possible standards.
Players are expected to adhere to the ACFA code of conduct. ACFA promotes equal opportunities for every individual who joins our Academy and offers its players a positive and supportive atmosphere, offering a safe environment for all participants, anything less will not be tolerated.
DID YOU KNOW ONLY 35% OF FOOTBALL FACILITIES ACROSS AUSTRALIA ARE FEMALE FRIENDLY?
We must level the playing field, WE NEED AN #EQUALISER
Football Australia in partnership with its State and Territory Member Federations have launched the #EQUALISER Federal Election Campaign.
Football Australia has set a goal of 50/50 gender participation by 2027 and with the upcoming FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ there has never been a better time to get behind female-friendly facilities.
