ASSETS
South Belgrave Football Club is currently in the best financial position in
clubs history.
Expected 2007 turnover is equal to the reported average for EFL
division 3 and 4 clubs.
Comparisons of season 2007 costs between EFL & YVMDFL reveal a
slightly higher cost in EFL of approx $1,000. Not perceived to be a
significant financial issue, and believe other benefits justify this. These
Include the supply of umpires and improved levels of insurance cover.
Comparisons of match day revenue with fourth Division EFL clubs,
Forest Hill & Eastern Lions, revealed similar revenue to what South
Belgrave currently generate in YVMDFL.
