Drysdale Football Club
Club & Community Wellbeing Committee

We are pleased to introduce the Club and Community Wellbeing Committee!

​

This team of incredibly inspiring and compassionate people share a wealth of knowledge and experience in the field of mental health and wellbeing.

​

We recognise that supporting the wellbeing of our players, coaches, members and community is the key to unlocking the full potential of our people both on and off the field.

​

This committee will be a point of contact for club members and support initiatives and programs to promote connection, belonging and a healthy club and community.
