We're delighted to share some exciting news for our club - our club has welcomed a new sponsor, Bendigo Bank (Community Bank Inner East).

This partnership has come about thanks to the efforts of a few committee members who have been working hard behind the scenes, and we're excited about what this means for the club moving forward.

Bendigo Bank is big on banking, but also big on community. Through its Community Bank model, it has invested over $11 million back into the local community since 2003, supporting clubs, schools, and community organisations like ours.

This is a fantastic partnership for our club. Their support will help us continue to grow, invest in our facilities, and create great opportunities for both our junior and senior players. Sponsorship like this plays an important role in the long-term sustainability of our club and allows us to:

• Support junior development
• Run competitions and social events
• Invest back into the club for the benefit of all members

We're also pleased to introduce Kate Bellamy, our new Community Engagement Advisor, who will be working with us as part of this partnership.

Please find the attached information letter for more details about Bendigo Bank and how this partnership supports community-focused organisations.

We encourage members to support the businesses that support us, and we look forward to sharing more as this partnership develops. Thank you to Bendigo Bank for supporting our club and community.
