The PFA was established in 1993 with two key objectives: to support the players and build the game.

The PFA is the longest established stakeholder in the professional game in Australia with the key to its longevity being the voice of the players. Since its establishment the PFA has, and always will be, run by the players for the players.
The PFA has delivered critical reforms that have enhanced the professional game in Australia and provided players with ‘world class’ collective bargaining agreements, player development and wellbeing programs and legal representation and advice.
