Chapter 10, of our HCSC Volunteer Spotlight, our final chapter for 2026, honours the volunteers who make football truly accessible — the people who ensure that every player, regardless of ability, has a place to belong, grow, and enjoy the game. This chapter centres on the All Abilities and ASD Academy programs, which have become one of the most meaningful parts of our club.At the heart of this work is Jess, whose dedication goes far beyond coaching. Jess creates an environment where every child feels included, valued, supported, and comfortable. She ensures that players of all abilities can participate in a way that celebrates their strengths and supports their needs. Her care, patience, and commitment have shaped a program that has changed lives.Together with her husband Kev, Jess established the All Abilities program from the ground up. Their vision and heart have opened doors for families across Victoria — families who once thought organised sport might not be possible. Because of them, children from all over the state now have a place to play, belong, and shine. Their impact is profound, lasting, and deeply felt.Supporting Jess and Kev are volunteers who help make the program run smoothly and ensure every child has what they need to feel confident and included:• Steph — who has organised all the visual guides, communication supports, and tools that help players understand, feel safe, and enjoy their football experience.• Kev — co‑founder of the program, whose leadership and heart continue to shape its direction.• John — who supports on game days, helping players feel comfortable, guided, and ready to enjoy their matches.Alongside them, we also recognise volunteers across our junior program who contribute to communication, organisation, and matchday involvement:• Z — U14 Team Manager• Bianca — U13 Team Manager• Slobodan — Club Assistant RefereeTogether, they help create a club environment where every player — regardless of age, ability, or experience — feels supported and included. Their contributions strengthen our community and reflect the values we are proud to stand behind. ...
