Not even close. Most are located separate from the mens teams facilities and use local gyms in the area. Although I think this year Adelaide have both of their squads in the one place.

M13 Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 Well, if other clubs just give womens football the shoulder we will dominate this game.. and reap the benefits from it. Said benefits mostly being of a marketing character yet but to CFG or rather its sub-division CFM that handles sponsorship negotiations for everything CFG it makes sense.

Falastur Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 (edited) Alleway re-signs.

InMyHeart Posted November 2, 2016 Report Share Posted November 2, 2016 When will see CFG building a little grand stand, 500-1000 seats, on the fields where we used to train and use that as a home ground for the NYL and NPL mens and also even hosting some W-League games?

Dylan Posted November 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2016 (edited) Even if you dont watch the womens game I would still think that things like this that the club are doing do give you a nice feeling as a supporter.

What a great thing for the club and womens football and not before time. Can see this being used as a huge marketing tool by inviting interested parties, schools and local clubs to visit, meet and greet. Proud of what this club is doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw1739 Posted November 23, 2016 Report Share Posted November 23, 2016 A 4+ minute video of the new women's facility is on the club Twitter account. You've got to be proud to be a supporter of this club. I almost don't care if we don't win very much - we're just doing so much for football in this country.

Heart_fan Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) Anyone aware if the building closest to the 3 community pitches is still used by the university? Could be another interesting addition to the CFA complex in future. It certainly is exciting to see what the club has achieved with the facilities. The only downside is that there does not appear to be significant space to build additional pitches on the site.

It belongs to the Latrobe University soccer club, as well as other university clubs that train on those grounds during the week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
