BUILDING WORK
Work is now underway on our major building refurbishment and extension. We have been
waiting for some time for it all to fall into place and we have held off until we could get the best
possible outcome for our club.
The renovated existing building will become 4 change rooms for males and females for
home and away teams. Each will have 2 new showers and one toilet. In addition there will be
separate universal access referee shower and toilet. We have allowed for a small separate
room to display the Chewton Football Club memorabilia as they were the original footy club at
Chewton. We will also have a cleaner store and a first aid space.
The new building will be clubrooms with windows overlooking the fields, kitchen, office and
referee office. Underneath we will have roller doors to store all our equipment at ground level
so no more carrying everything up and down steps. The kiosk will remain where it is. We will
be putting solar panels on the roof also and we already capture rainwater for our tanks which
is used for toilets and grounds.
Overall, we feel we have maximized the benefits for our club and feel we have achieved the
best possible outcome within the budget.
ACHIEVING CLUB EXCELLENCE
In addition, our club has achieved level one in FOOTBALL ACE (Achieving Club Excellence)
as assessed by Football Federation of Victoria. This award recognises clubs who have
demonstrated they have reached certain standards as established by FFV. Well done to
everyone at the club.
FREE SOCCEROOS SCARF
Free Socceroos scarves - -the vouchers for your free scarf gift this year will be posted out May
21. These vouchers can be redeemed at KFC – in the past the FFV has used a sporting chain
to distribute balls but there were not enough shops spread across Victoria to make it easy for
everyone to redeem their gift. At least there are plenty of KFC stores across the state!
