Deloraine Kangaroos jump into the 2020 season launch

THE DELORAINE Football Club is inviting members of the Deloraine community to their 2020 season launch on 10 March. With thanks to Elders, the club is looking forward to welcoming players from the North Melbourne Football Club, who will be running a clinic for juniors from 4pm, followed by a small meet and greet. The evening will include a barbecue, refreshments and Senior training.

Season 2020 will then be launched with Senior Squad jumper presentations, introductions to new players and valued sponsors, and an ‘on the couch’ session with special guest, North Melbourne Senior Assistant Coach Jade Rawlings. Jade had a 12 year AFL career with Hawthorn, the Western Bulldogs and North Melbourne, coaching at Richmond, Brisbane and Melbourne, before becoming North Melbourne’s Assistant Senior Coach at the end of 2019.

He is a member of the AFL Tas Hall of Fame, originally playing for Devonport in the TSL. A well-known guest speaker, Jade should be an interesting guest for the clubs’ launch. The club would love to see the community support their event as they head into the new season of football. All are very welcome to attend and see what the Club has in store for 2020. The Club is also pleased and proud to announce that the Deloraine & Districts Community Bank Branch will be the Premier Sponsor of the Deloraine Football Club for the next four seasons.

Simon Rootes and the team at the Deloraine branch are great supporters of the Deloraine Football Club and the club encourages the community to support the bank in turn. Deloraine & Districts Community Bank Branch has contributed over 1.8 million dollars back into the wider Deloraine community.
