PENDLE HILL FC
Our Vision: Pendle Hill Football Club will remain a leading club in the football community, with a growing reputation for excellent coach and player development and effective club administration.
Our Mission Statement: Pendle Hill Football Club provides a supportive and safe environment for members to develop and mature through football participation as players, coaches, managers, referees and supporters. We wish to foster and provide opportunities for all ages to enjoy a lifetime involvement with the World Game. Football will be coached, played and supported in accordance with the spirit of the game, represented by fair play and sportsmanship and be, above all, fun at all levels from juniors to seniors. Coaches will be supported and encouraged to create and maintain a positive learning environment during both training and matches, demonstrated by an educational focus, calm player instruction and an emphasis on participation. Success will be measured through resulting improvements in football peformance, not just match outcomes.
Our Values: Pendle Hill Football Club has a reputation for being inclusive and welcoming. We do not support a "win at all costs" philosophy - particpation, learning and enjoyment of the game of football are priorities. We believe being part of Pendle Hill Football Club is a familiy affair. We rely on our parents and players to volunteer in order to provide a quality experience for our players, both juniors and seniors. We hope that everyone will enjoy being part of a great club and its football community. We value respect for team mates, opposition players, coaches, managers and officials. We believe in fair play according to the rules and spirit of sportsmanship. We encourage education for coaches, players and managers in a supportive team environment. We value a culture of mature, responsible behaviour at all levels and promote, as a strong community value, our stance on non-violent behaviour and positive role-modeling for young people. We endorse the Granville District Soccer Football Association's, Football NSW's and Football Federation of Australia's codes of conduct for players, coaches, parents and referees.
Heartbeat of football
Promoting heart health through sport, Heartbeat
of Football aims to help men and women play their chosen sport for as
long as possible … safely.
Initially,
the focus will be on football codes. In Australia, it is believed there
have been 10 cases of heart-related deaths related to amateur football
in the past two years.
There is a tendency to focus on health issues only after a tragedy.
Heartbeat of Football would like to change this by proactively preparing
as many people as possible for such an event as ever-increasing members
of community see the benefits of, and enjoy taking part in, amateur
sport.
