Player Points System Process

Player Points System Process
Under the Player Points System (PPS), post February 1st annually when registrations and clearances open, clubs may request AFLNEB to verify the PPS values of their playing lists once approximately 75% of their anticipated playing list has been registered and the club allocates players a PPS value. 

It is encouraged that clubs request verification to AFLNEB Regional Operations Officer, Gavin Rendell, to ensure verification prior to Round 1 of the respective Leagues. Once a clubs list has been verified by AFLNEB, the club’s ability to allocate PPS values shall be locked and the club notified; any additional players will then need to be verified individually by contacting AFLNEB following registration. 

Within 7 days of AFLNEB verifying a club’s playing list, the club may apply for reassessment of individual players to the Player Points Panel. 

Further, AFLNEB will not speculate, at any time, on any individual players PPS value and requires a player to be registered with an AFLNEB affiliated club to provide a PPS value. 

Finally, clubs are reminded that they remain responsible for ensuring they do not exceed their PPS Caps. AFLNEB will continue to offer support to clubs in the management of both the Allowable Player Payments (APP) and PPS with general queries directed to AFLNEB offices in Wodonga (02 6056 1993) and Wangaratta (03 5722 1993). 

Alternatively, any specific ruling requests for either the APP or PPS should be made in writing and emailed to Gavin Rendell at gavin.rendell@afl.com.au, who will now be monitoring both equalisation measures.

Ben has been involved with the local Wangaratta Auskick centre for five years and the coordinator for four of those, the exciting announcement was announced at the allocation night for Auskickers graduating to the Wangaratta and District Junior Football League in front of local Auskickers, parents and local WDJFL Clubs. The prize for the award is a grand final weekend experience including three nights' accommodation in Melbourne, a ticket to the Welcome to Melbourne function, attendance at the grand final parade, and a reserve seat ticket to the 27 September grand final. Over his time, Ben has secured significant sponsorship for the program; has initiated the all-girls' group; provides a support network for smaller centres across Wangaratta and surrounding regions; contributes to community events like allocation night and puts in a heap of extra work with the allocation process; organises half-time Auskick games at local football league matches; and, of course, the countless hours spent organising jumpers, certificates, equipment and everything in between, year after year. Wangaratta is regularly one of the biggest centres in the state, if not the nation, and this year was the biggest in Victoria. That, as you can imagine, makes it almost a full-time commitment, year-round. A huge congratulations to Ben from everyone at AFLNEB!
