In recent months we have been working with the AFL Players’ Association to define a range of benefits which are being made available to their members.
A someone who has played at least 1 VFL/AFL game you are entitled to join the Alumni and receive the benefits from their association.
The benfits are both highly tangible and provide a lifetime of value. Benefits, which fall within the areas of Health and Wellbeing, Financial Prosperity, Continuing Education and Social Connections, include:
- bulk billing access to the AFL Medical Officers Network;
- reimbursement of private health insurance excess fees for medical procedures – up to $500 per year for all health insurers;
- access to financial services;
- edecational and Personal development offers; and
- ongoing social connections through both the Spirit of Carlton past player network as well as the Alumni network itself.
- The full range of benefits, as well as further information about the AFL Players’ Alumni, can be found in the linked brochure.
To join, simply complete the linked membership form and return it – including once off fee of $50 ($25 for pensioners) – to the AFL Players’ Association Level 2, 375 Albert Road, Albert Park VIC 3206 or scan and email the form to info@aflpa.com.au
Over 1700 former VFL/AFL players are currently enjoying the benefits of being an AFL Players’ Alumni member and we recommend this association to you.
