Establishing a New WAFL District: Harnessing Talent in Gin Gin

This proposal outlines the creation of a new Western Australian Football League (WAFL) club in Gin Gin, aimed at fostering local talent and development. The goal is to provide opportunities for young athletes in remote communities to compete with teams from metropolitan areas. Key considerations include local population dynamics, accessibility, and existing sports culture. Through data and analysis, we determined that a WAFL club in Gin Gin would better support community engagement, youth participation, and overall development in Australian rules football, surpassing potential in Bunbury.

  2. Aim • Our aim was to create a new Western Australian Football club which would create a district able to support up and coming talent within the state • We tried to aim for communities which allow young AFL sportsmen in somewhat remote communities( who have the potential) to be able to participate against inner city clubs and player

  3. Data worth consideration • Popularity of AFL in area • Other WAFL districts proximity • Available land resources • Funding (sponsorships) • Population • Access to area (transportation)

  4. Programming and sources used • Google Earth software • Landgate public available information which includes • maps engines • Australian Bureau of statistics online census data • Some general Wikipedia data

  5. More facts • - According to the ABS the proposed area around Gin Gin has a population of around 10’000 people where as Bunbury has around 38’000 • - Local clubs have had direct impacts to other WAFL clubs but these clubs are around 60 km away which can make for long traveling to and from areas (Gin Gin) • - A WAFL club in the area will encourage kids to take up the sport and will also encourage adults (25-54 that make up about 38% of the population) to get involved in the sport and contribute) (Gin Gin) • Allows a better selection of local talent to be picked for development squads to play in Perth • Bunbury allows a larger metropolitan area with more funding and infastructure
