Sporting Clubs - Strengthening Communities

Essendon is passionate about playing an integral role in the community and with the club's underlying philosophy focusing on strengthening communities through sport, there is no doubting the Club's enthusiasm for being able to provide ongoing support for its affiliate sporting bodies again this year.

The Club is one of Australia's largest affiliated sporting bodies and works in conjunction with 11 other clubs throughout Melbourne's north-western suburbs.

In addition to providing ongoing maintenance of the Windy Hill facility and those affiliated sporting clubs based there, Essendon also distributes funding to these clubs on an annual basis with over $300,000 distributed in 2008.
