Requests Criteria
Requests that are not submitted on the donation request form or are incomplete will not be considered.
The club does not accept any items to be signed under any circumstances. Items sent to the club for this purpose will be sent back unsigned and the Collingwood Football Club takes no responsibility of lost or damaged items.
We encourage all members and supporters to attend training sessions (as advertised on the website) as players will sign autographs at their discretion before and after training.
Requests must be submitted at least six weeks prior to the event.
If the request is for a charitable function, expect a reply approximately four weeks prior to the function.
The club does not provide monetary donations or sponsorship.
Types of Requests
Coles Community Bay Tickets Program
This program provides community organisations, welfare agencies, schools and disadvantaged people with tickets to Collingwood AFL and SNL matches.
Collingwood Training Visits
Collingwood hosts special training visits for disadvantaged people at AFL, Netball and AFLW training sessions. Visitors are hosted by a Collingwood staff member and have the opportunity to meet players for autographs and photos.
Due to the high volume of interest, we are unfortunately not able to fulfil all requests.
