In this episode of Coast Football Weekly, we’re joined by Central Coast Football CEO Alex Burgin for a behind-the-scenes look at how football is run across the Coast.

Alex takes us through his journey in sport administration, from his early years at Central Coast Football to his time working in the AFL system, and what eventually brought him back to lead CCF as CEO.

We dive into the growth of football on the Central Coast, including another record-breaking registration season in 2026, the challenges that come with managing more players and fixtures than ever before, and the work that goes into supporting clubs, volunteers and competitions across the region.

Alex also shares insight into some of CCF’s major initiatives and events, his relationship with clubs and council, the importance of facilities, upgrades at Pluim Park, office day-today, judiciary processes, the continued growth of the MPL and WPL competitions, and what the future of football on the Central Coast could look like.
