WORKSAFE COUNTRY CLUB GAMES


Since 2002, WorkSafe has continuously supported Country Victorian football. The WorkSafe Country Club Program helps remind everyone that by staying safe at work you can enjoy the game you love.


The program celebrates and recognises the important role country footy and netball clubs play in our community, and highlight the unsung volunteers who selflessly donate many hours of their own time.


WorkSafe supports the clubs by providing a week of activations and experiences, culminating in a traditional WorkSafe Country Club match day celebration.


Activities and experiences include:

  • WorkSafe Mental Health Workshop presented by Sport and Life Training
  • Country Club Footy and Netball Training Night with WorkSafe Ambassador Tom Boyd - Premiership AFL Player attending your footy training, along with some of the Melbourne Vixens joining your netballers for some great tips and skills
  • Country Club Match Day features WorkSafe giveaways, activations, awards and a range of interesting guest including AFL, AFL Victoria and Melbourne Vixens representatives, along with the opportunity for you to speak one-on-one with a friendly WorkSafe inspector, and they are always happy to provide you with any advice.


Head of AFL Victoria, Greg Madigan said: “It’s fantastic to see the WorkSafe Country Club Games return, and we are very fortunate to have had the ongoing support of WorkSafe in Victorian country football."


“The WorkSafe Country Club program provides a great opportunity to spread the message of workplace safety to the vast football community, and importantly, it allows us to show our gratitude towards our clubs and their members for their hard work throughout the season."
