Northern is a values-based club at the heart of North Dunedin.  Below are the 4 values we see as fundamental to our club

Community

We will be welcoming to all. We will create an environment of openness that engages the entire football community. We will be accessible to everyone and encourage a team ethic throughout the organisation. We will be a positive force in the football community.

Aroha

We want to be a place where football brings together good people with different backgrounds, but all members have shared values and shared goals.

Responsibility 

For our teammates, our clubmates, our families, our youth, and our community. We are responsible for respecting the past and remembering the history of those who built this club before us. We are also responsible for the legacy we build and leave for those in the future. Now is a fleeting moment. While we can enjoy the present, we are bigger than that; we are mere guardians of the badge, the club always comes first - our history and our sustainability.

Excellence

We will provide the structure from which to grow and develop. We will provide the foundation for everyone to excel and reach their maximum potential.
