Brookvale FC is a grassroots football club located at LM Grahams Reserve in Manly, on Sydney’s northern beaches. 

We are proud to welcome players of all ages and all abilities, and cater for girls and boys from the age of 4.5 to over 45. With over 90 teams and over 1,200 players competing in the local (MWFA) association, we invite you to join our wonderful club, where it is all about the football.

Our many dedicated and passionate volunteers are the heart of our club, and we are immensely grateful for their wonderful contributions and many hours of coaching, managing, setting up fields, manning the canteen, cooking up a storm on the BBQ, organising the age groups, sorting the gear, liaising with the MWFA, and of course supporting our players on the sideline. Without you, there would be no club, so thank you!

If you would like to help out in any capacity, please reach out to any of us on the Contact Us page.

We wear our Azzurri blue shirts with pride, and we provide a friendly environment that fosters enjoyment and fair play. We encourage our supporters to do the same and remind everyone that success is not just about the size of a club and the number of trophies a club wins. It is about ensuring all our members get maximum enjoyment from playing ‘the beautiful game’.

Our commitment to being community-based has built the strongest links to local players and schools. We care about every single player and their families, and we want them to get the most out of their involvement by providing a supportive environment where ALL children and adults play for the love of the game.

Our FUTURO program encourages skill acquisition and development, while our Director of Coaching is engaged to improve on-field performance and encourage all coaches through courses, workshops, and assisted training sessions.

Our Values

At Brookvale Football Club, we believe football is more than just a game. It’s a shared journey that brings people together, builds character, and inspires growth. We are proudly rooted in our community, where every player, parent, coach, and supporter is part of our extended football family. Our club thrives on three core values:

1. Joyful Participation: We celebrate the social side of football, where laughter, teamwork, and friendship are just as important as goals and trophies. Whether you’re kicking a ball for the first time or playing for the love of the game, we create space for everyone to belong and enjoy.
2. Family First: Our club is a safe, welcoming environment where families connect, support one another, and grow together. We value respect, inclusion, and community spirit, ensuring that every member feels seen, heard, and valued, on and off the pitch.
3. Player Growth: We are committed to nurturing every player’s potential through high-quality coaching, structured development pathways, and a positive learning culture. From grassroots to advanced levels, we empower players to thrive technically, physically, and mentally.

Together, we play with purpose, grow with passion, and build a legacy of unity, excellence, and joy.

Our Vision

To ensure a friendly environment that fosters enjoyment and fair play; to impact the development of youth in our community by providing opportunities to young players of all ages and playing abilities; and to create a lifelong passion for the beautiful game. Our ultimate goal as a club is to encourage, inspire, and empower each player and coach to reach the highest level possible within the game, while helping create leaders and individuals that will inspire others to do the same.
