Careers, Education and Mentors

The Frankston FC places a huge importance on supporting our young athletes off the field.
The “Dolphin Mentors” are a group of well-connected people who have studied, worked and volunteered in many different fields, with many opportunities and pathways for the Frankston VFL and academy players to tap into. 
The main aim for launching this group is to be of assistance and a helping hand for the Dolphin players who need it while navigating, work, study or life choices outside of the great game of footy. 

Well-being is a team sport. We use the player in the best position on the field, let’s use our experienced advisors off it.
