Get Involved
Our Club operates on a volunteer basis and we call on parents and senior players (or any other enthusiastic person who puts their hand up) to assist with Club duties. In comparison to most of the other football clubs in the District, we are a relatively small club and exist thanks to this volunteering community.
What you can do:
Support our Canteen
Our canteen is our major source of fundraising. The funds raised have and will continue to contribute towards the equipment used by the players and the development of Larry Grant Memorial Oval.
If interested, parent’s can help out, whether serving behind the counter or staffing the BBQ. It is very difficult to do everything on your own, but it can be the warmest place in the Winter.
Most importantly, please support the canteen as a customer on training nights and match days.
