Football is global. Councils are still thinking domestic. While Japan and South Korea treat football as a national asset, Australian clubs are being told to “make do” with facilities stuck in the past. If councils don’t change how they plan and invest, Australia won’t just fall behind locally, we’ll fall behind globally.
Club confidence in councils is collapsing as football participation surges. In a Soccerscene-exclusive survey conducted between 19 and 30 January 2026 and distributed through our 31,000-strong industry database, grassroots and semi-professional leaders warned that planning, consultation and funding are failing to keep pace. The result is overcrowded facilities, volunteer burnout, and a growing risk Australia falls further behind structured football nations like Japan and South Korea.

The ESPORTS League is designed for clubs and academies to grow participation by offering a tournament for non-traditional futsal players. Clubs can extend their teams with dedicated ESPORTS players, hold trials for each age group, and create tournament entry packages – boosting their profile, increasing revenue streams, and developing ongoing league engagement.
The Queensland Government has allocated $42.5 million of critical relief to sports clubs affected by Cyclone Alfred and West Queensland flooding.
At the heart of the program is the Club’s Rank Score (CRS), which ranks clubs according to a longevity-focused framework. It analyses key criteria, such as opportunities for progression, equity, and safety, producing a merit-based reflection of FQ Academy Club quality. While the CRS reliably examines a club’s overall performance, it does not consider cost-efficiency or gender inequalities.
