NTC Girls Review summary report

Football Victoria is pleased to release a summary report, following a review of Victoria’s National Training Centre (NTC) Girls Program.

Since 2017, FV has been operating the NTC programs with the aim of providing talented athletes with access to high-quality coaching, training, and playing environments.

In 2024, FV engaged Gemba to undertake a comprehensive review of the NTC Girls program. The review assessed several key areas of the programs, including:

  • Effectiveness in athlete development, program management and structure
  • Athlete wellbeing
  • Adherence to policies and regulations
  • Communication protocols and the overall experience of athletes and stakeholders

Gemba has made 20 recommendations mapped against review findings to ensure a high-performing, good governance culture within Football Victoria’s NTC Girls program. Please see summary below.

Football Victoria has committed to actioning these recommendations to ensure the program continues to be the standard across the Australian Football landscape.
