Football Queensland (FQ) has today announced details of the Future of Football 2020+ Club Summits to be held across Queensland following the release of the consultation paper.

Kicking off this Saturday in Cairns, FQ CEO Robert Cavallucci will host the first in a series of Club Summit events around the state before travelling to Townsville on Sunday.

“The launch of our Future of Football 2020+ Club Summits and focus groups is a significant step in the consultation process,” FQ CEO Robert Cavallucci said.

“This weekend we will meet with key members of the football community including administrators, volunteers and participants, in addition to tailored consultation sessions with specific groups such as referees, coaches and Technical Directors, with each stakeholder group given the opportunity to have their say on key areas of our game.

“It is vital that our members across both regional and South East Queensland have the opportunity to play a role in shaping the future direction of the game by engaging in this ongoing consultation process, so we encourage the football community in Cairns and Townsville to join us this weekend as we kick off our Club Summits.”

“We’re looking forward to again welcoming Football Queensland to the region for the upcoming Club Summit events in Cairns and Townsville,” FQ North General Manager Declan Carnes said.

“We are hopeful that the local football community will take advantage of this unique opportunity to help shape the future of our game by registering to attend one of the Club Summits scheduled across Cairns and Townsville.

“There are limited spots available for each session, so we encourage our members to register your attendance to have your say on the future of football.”
