What is a Hackathon?

A hackathon (also known as a hack day, hackfest or codefest) is a short intensive session where teams are given a problem area, data, tools, and bring their own skills & resources to solve chosen challenges.

Prizes:

Great prizes, such as Caltex Socceroos tickets, Hyundai A-League memorabilia and Westfield Matilda’s merchandise and more will be available for the winners and place-getters of the Hackathon, as selected by a panel of judges

The main prize winner will also get to the opportunity to further develop their idea with Football Federation Australia, and make an impact of the football community.
