Presidents message.
To all our Barnstoneworth members

At the recent AGM’s of Barnstoneworth United Jnr FC & Barnstoneworth United FC, it was announced that the clubs, previously seperate organisations, are merging, combining committees, funds and resources. The club will now be under the banner of Barnstoneworth United Football Club – Melbourne.

This change will allow the junior players to have a clear pathway, allowing a seamless transition into senior football for all our girls and boys. The change will also allow our senior mens and women’s teams to work with the club, share their knowledge and assist in, and continue working with our junior members and parents.

As one club, we will see lots more benefits for our members. We plan to make our club even greater whilst continuing to follow our values of ‘Football for All’. It will allow us to have extra teams, enhanced coaching through technology, regular events throughout the year to bring our amazing community together and allow us to utilise our fantastic clubroom facility (more updates on this to come).

Although we are not increasing our registration fees from season 2024, we will be introducing a $50 volunteer levy in season 2025. As we all know, Barnstoneworth is a 100% volunteer club and we need your support to continue making our club the great community club that it is. By completing 8hrs of volunteer work at the club, we will refund you the $50 in the form of a voucher to be used towards the canteen, merchandise or events.

We would like to thank our long time sponsors:

Werribee Automotive Group

Williamstown Health and Lifestyle

Fresh Beauty Co.

The Cheeky Pint

SAS

Gemini Property Maintenance Group

TeamMates Australasia

Motor One Group

Your support of our club is greatly appreciated.

If there is anyone within the club that may know of any businesses that would be interested in sponsorship, please have them call 0491 341 110 for more information. Every little bit counts, small sums are welcome and as a not for profit organisation it is tax deductible.

Our committee would like to wish all our members a safe and wonderful Christmas. We hope everyone enjoys the holiday season and we look forward to welcoming existing and new members back in 2025. Let’s continue to make BUFC the leading community club of the West.
