As you know, the “official” commencement of training for the 2011 AFL Sydney Season is tomorrow at North Sydney Oval / Blacktown Olympic Park, starting at 6pm.
To celebrate the launch of the new season (and to find out what everyone has really been doing during the off season), the AFL Sydney Umpires | NSWAFUA have planned a “Welcome back BBQ” after training at North Sydney Oval.
It is hoped that we will have a large number of people attending training and the BBQ, because the BBQ also has another objective: to raise money for the victims of the recent devastating Queensland Floods.
The Committee has investigated a number of ways in which the Association might best assist our northern neighbours during this time of need. It was determined that the donation of money was the best option.
Consequently, all monies raised from the BBQ (and all sales generated from the General Store over the next two weeks) will be donated by the AFL Sydney Umpires | NSWAFUA to the Queensland Premier Flood Appeal.
This is your opportunity to contribute to a very worthy cause and make a difference to the future of a Queensland community, sporting group or family.
The cost of the food for tomorrows BBQ is listed below, but please think about contributing what you can in addition.
BBQ Prices:
- Sausage Sandwich $3.00
- Hamburger $5.00
- Muffin $2.00
We hope that as a group, the Association can raise some money and be proud that we have made a difference.
