Melbourne Knights FC

The Melbourne Knights Football Club welcomes the recently published White Paper ‘A Plan for a National Second Division in Australia’ by Football Federation Australia, prepared in consultation with the National Second Division Working Group.

We would like to thank the Association of Australian Football Clubs who put in a large amount of effort in lobbying for a National Second Division to become a priority within the sport.

It is also worth recognising that the new FFA board has worked with AAFC and other stakeholders in presenting this whitepaper for discussion which has been a long overdue change in policy from the peak body.

We are excited by the possibilities of the national second division and firmly believe that it could be the change and rejuvenation that the sport needs to fulfil its potential.
