Grassroots football bounces back in Australia

Sydney: Football Australia is back in the grassroots game in 2022 after the COVID-19 pandemic forced many programmes and competitions to abruptly pause and eventually be cancelled throughout 2020 and in some parts of the country, continuing in 2021.

In 2019, Football Australia witnessed continued growth in grassroots participation with over 543,000 players registering for outdoor organised football and over 63,000 playing futsal. Overall total participation reached a record two million participants.
