ROUND 2 - FIRST HOME GAME

SATURDAY 12th APRIL v EAST POINT

Our juniors kick off Round 1 against East Point, playing not just for points, but for something much bigger – the Rachael Murnane Wellness Aggregate Shield.

This special match honours the life and legacy of Rachael, a cherished member of our North Ballarat family, and shines a light on the importance of wellness in our club and community.

Our Senior football & netball cohort will also be playing on Saturday. Our only dual gate game for the year.

We’d love to see a strong Northies crowd there to cheer on our teams and be part of this important day.

Stick around after the game for a celebration upstairs, featuring Live music, Best on Ground & Court presentations, & Discounted bistro meals.

Let’s come together to support our players, remember Rachael, and celebrate what Wellness Round truly means for North Ballarat.
