It is all well explained with examples at at  | VicMetro Defibs since 2009
AFL Masters VicMetro Superules initiated a program in 2009 and purchased 19 defibs for Clubs that were interested, who paid back the money over 1, 2 or 3 years.
2 Clubs purchased TWO - one for the junior aspect of their Club and one for the Seniors plus.
Metro have actively promoted the Defib program in all our Clubs and have set up an alliance with ‘Defib you Club for Life’.
We have pushed this Nationally and 2 more State bodies of AFL Masters are purchasing Defibs.
Locally the initiative is proceding to completion.
4 Southern Clubs have a Mini Carnival in March to raise funds for defibrillators.
Essendon Supers are applying to St. John’s for a defib and have media shoots this Monday to promote the cause.
Williamstown have also expressed interest in purchasing their own Defib this year.
AFL Masters will make Clubs having Defibs MANDATORY by 2013.
AFL Masters Vic Country purchased Defibs for all their Clubs this year. The League paid half and each Club paid half.
