Interschool Football

Football is now a regular fixture in interschool sport for many Special Schools across Melbourne. Programs are currently running in the Southern and Northern suburbs, supported by FV and the following organisations:
- Southern Special Schools Sports Association (SSSSA)
- Northern Special Schools Sports Association (NSSSA)
 

FV looks forward to more students discovering football as these programs continue to develop across Melbourne. As a result of these programs we also hope to see more links developing between special schools and local football clubs.

Southern Special Schools Sports Association (SSSSA) Interschool Football

SSSSA have a well established interschool sports program, which has featured football for a number of years. There are two components of the program, with the Competition division and Development division. 13 schools participate in these programs at Knox Regional Football Centre. This is a fantastic facility for this type of program with its 9 enclosed Football Fives pitches and the full sized pitch which hosts the A grade competition.

Northern Special Schools Sports Association (NSSSA) Interschool Football

13 schools are currently participating in a brand new indoor program offered by FFV, Belgravia Leisure and Netball Victoria, at the Westgate Indoor Sports Centre. Students get to experience both Netball and Football in this program, with many of them trying these sports for the first time. SEDA students play an important role in this program, running skills clinics and refereeing matches under the guidance of FV referees and coaches.
Planning is currently underway for additional multisport programs in the northern suburbs.
