Our History
The spirit of AFL junior footy and Auskick in Frankston South
As a Frankston & District Junior Football League club since the 1960’s, we get stronger every year – this year fielding teams from Under 8s up to Under 18s.
We joined the league in 1967 as Frankston VFA – with a solid history of welcoming new families and players, our Club has achieved considerable on-field success while always remaining focused on ensuring player participation and enjoyment. Winning is not everything and all involved at the Dolphins take great pride in the contributions made to the personal development of our young boys and girls over their years with us.
So as a parent or guardian you are sure to find our Club is a safe and positive environment for your children. We are also strongly committed to our successful Auskick football program for players aged 5-10 years with the focus on fun, friendship, fitness and development.
A Good Sports Club
We Are A Good Sports Level 3 Accredited Club
Sporting clubs such as ours play a significant role in the community and have a responsibility to our members and their families. We have chosen to join over 6,500 clubs across Australia taking part in the Australian Drug Foundation’s Good Sports program. Through Good Sports we are committed to managing alcohol responsibly and ensuring smoke free areas, which we believe will help us to provide a healthy, safe and family friendly environment.
Through Good Sports We Aim To:
Eliminate risky drinking in the club through the promotion of a responsible approach to the sale and consumption of alcohol in the club
Protect juniors and other young people from the misuse of alcohol in and around the club
Provide a responsible smoke-free club environment, through designated smoking areas
At Level 3, We Are Committed To:
Not selling or consuming alcohol without an appropriate liquor license
Training our bar staff in Responsible Service of Alcohol (RSA)
Ensuring smoke free areas are available
Organising safe and responsible social events and finding alternate prizes/fundraiser, rather than alcohol
Thinking ahead and ensuring players and members get home safely after functions
Formalising and implementing our club’s alcohol management policy
