Strategic Plan
At the end of 2008, New Zealand Football and the seven Federations released a Strategic Plan for Football in New Zealand 2009-2011 and a Partnership Operating Agreement
These documents marked a significant shift forward for the game in New Zealand, with the Strategic Plan conceived by all parties and to be delivered as a partnership.
It is a call to action on many fronts with a key focus being optimising scarce resources across the game. The partnership agreement outlines how football in New Zealand will work together to implement the plan.
