AFL VIC & TAC
Last year, our club participated in the TAC Club Rewards Program, focusing on road safety awareness. We were proud to receive $10,000 in funding, which we used for uniforms, training equipment, and community engagement.
In 2023, Ringwood stood out in Victoria for its unique and positive road safety initiatives, thanks to the exceptional efforts of Olivia Ashcroft. Olivia’s work was recognised by TAC and AFL Vic as the best in the state, leading to the clubs prominent role in this year's campaign launch, check out the videos and post at the below links.

DEAKIN COMMUNITY AWARDS
Recently our Club president Jake Keogh and Committee member Olivia Ashcroft were recipients of a Deakin Community Award for their service to our community. Jake Keogh received the overall Deakin Community Award for his dedicated service to our community.
FUNDRASIER FOR JUNIORS
As we head into the End of Financial Year, the club wanted to let you know that we are running a fundraiser to help with the purchasing of equipment for our juniors that can also help you. With more teams added to the club this year, including an under 12 girls team, we are looking to ensure we can continue to support the junior club to provide players equipment and keep fees for all junior teams the lowest that we possibly can. Your support can help to make this happen. We have set up an Australian Sports Foundation page in which all donations made to this cause are tax deductible.
All funds from these donations will go to the purchasing of equipment for our juniors, including jerseys for new teams we plan to introduce in 2024 and to subsidise the fees of juniors so it is cheaper for them to play as we continue to grow the club.
If you would like to make a donation and receive a tax deduction in the process, click on the link below.
