Thank you Naim Kurt for Hume City Council for your ongoing support.On behalf of community football clubs in Hume, I penned this letter to the President of Football Victoria expressing my concern over proposed fees being sort for the cancelled 2020 season.

Many clubs are being asked to fork the bill for players who did not fully register and play because of the cancelled season, and in some cases are oweing tens of thousands of dollars to the federation.

Local football clubs are the lifeblood of our community in Hume, and given the difficulties this year because of Covid they deserve a fairer fee schedule. I hope Football Victoria can reconsider their position.

*** OPEN LETTER TO Football Victoria ***

Dear Executive committee at Football Victoria

On Monday November 23rd a letter was sent to FV via email, (see letter attached) approved by over 70 clubs, listing their concerns about the refunds offered by FV and demand for payment of player registration fees for a season that did not go ahead in 2020.

On Friday November 27th a follow up email was sent. At this stage we have not received acknowledgement of receipt of the email nor have we received a time to meet.

You now leave us little choice but to request local and state government assistance in procuring this meeting to work through the refund issues noted in the letter.

Please note that we are not going away and will not be making any sort of payment until a mutually agreed solution is reached.

Regards
A disappointed football community and its hard working volunteers

Dear Kimon,

We are following up on our email sent to you below and letter attached for which we have had no response thus far. Given the importance of this issue for all member clubs in Victoria and the impact this will have on the future of our clubs we are very disappointed to say the least that our email and letter have been ignored. As a matter of courtesy we expected a response acknowledging the receipt of this communication.

Given the lack of response from FV we advise you of the following:

The 80 Clubs that are now represented with our letter will not be paying the invoices issued for season 2020.
This issue will now be escalated to our local MPs, Councils and Consumer Affairs.
All Clubs will make their Members aware of the issue relating to FV’s demand for fees for season 2020 through social media channels.
All Clubs will create public awareness of the issues we are facing through media channels.

It is unfortunate that Victorian Clubs have to now dedicate their time to an issue that could have been avoided during a time where we should be focused on preparing our Clubs for season 2021 and re-engagement of our community and members to our sport.

Dear FV Accounts Dept,
We are writing to you in reference to your recent communication to Victorian Football Clubs regarding the request for payment of registration fees for season 2020.
The basis for your request for payment of 2020 registration fees cannot be justified or agreed to by clubs given the following:
1. Withdrawal of Clubs from season 2020 due to the restrictions and risks associated with COVID-19
2. Non acceptance of players to play at Clubs due to the restrictions and risks associated with COVID-19
3. Lack of payment by Club members of 2020 Club registration fees
4. Refund of fees to members due to the restrictions and risks associated with COVID-
19 and the financial hardship faced by members of Clubs
5. Club liabilities incurred and paid for – Club playing strips, equipment, fixed
overheads and FFA Cup Player Registration fees
6. Unexpected costs incurred by Clubs due to COVID-19 regulations – sanitisation of
club rooms, purchase of PPE etc
7. Cancellation of season 2020 by FV due the restrictions and risks associated with
COVID-19
8. Lack of income generation opportunities by Clubs – Sponsorship, canteen, events etc
While the 74 Clubs represented with this letter understand that the FV has incurred expenses this year, it goes without saying that we are all in the “same boat”. As a football community we need to do what is best for the survival of our sport and ensure that our members can return to our respective Clubs in 2021 and have the same level of service and support from the Clubs they have become accustomed to.
It is for this reason we seek a meeting with members of the FV to discuss and agree to an amicable outcome for us all.
We look forward to your response ...
