The club launched its recycling and wastage campaign at the weekend, during a home game against Newlyn. The campaign is part of the Four Quarters to Tackle Climate Change initiative, which will see the club install recycling bins and phase out the use of polystyrene cups.

SHARE project officer Tanya Black has worked with the club to introduce the initiative.

She said waste management was a big issue for football clubs across the region. "If you go to any football club, none of them have got recycling bins," she said.

"This (project) will address waste in football clubs and implement some recycling initiatives."

As part of the project, Daylesford Football Netball Club will also assess its water and energy use,The light-emitting led downlight diode, or LED, bulbs should last 50,000 hours, or 20 years, and they use 30 to 40 percent less energy. and install energy-saving light globes and water-saving devices.
