This can include both prizes for the competitions (in the past there has been signed basketballs, game tickets, sports store vouchers) and also giveaways for the boys (again in the past there has also been drinks, yoghurts, key rungs hats).
We are looking for volunteers on the day – general crowd control, competition organisation, scorers and referees. Any help on either front is greatly appreciated! Please email Michelle if you are available to assist Michelle McDowell michmcd@tpg.com.au.
