Cheer sqaud
Another way to get involved is to become part of the cheer squad. On match days the cheer squad are located behind the goals in a family friendly environment, adding to the voice and colour of match days.  The group also has the responsibility of preparing the weekly run through banner, and representing the Club Australia wide.  This group has been reinvigorated in 2013, and we are looking for anyone that wishes to get involved to help out.  For more information on how to get involved in the cheer squad click here.
