100% Volunteer Run

The Heart of the Club

From the canteen to the committee, every goal scored at Manly Vale FC is made possible by people just like you.

Powered By Passion

Manly Vale FC is more than just a football club; it’s a community built by the community. Every jersey washed, every line marked, and every goal celebrated is made possible by the dedication of our volunteers. We have no paid staff—just passionate locals keeping the game alive.

Who Makes It Happen?

It takes a village (or a suburb) to run a club.

The Committee
A dedicated group of parents and players who meet monthly to manage finances, admin, and future direction.
Coaches & Managers
Over 150 mums, dads, and senior players guiding our teams every weekend, ensuring players learn and have fun.
Canteen Crew
The legends behind the grill and counter at David Thomas Reserve, keeping players fueled and fans happy.
Age Coordinators
The vital link between the club and teams, organizing grading and logistics for specific age groups.
Grounds & Setup
The early risers who mark lines, set up nets, and ensure our fields are safe and ready for match day glory.
