The NFL Bushfire appeal is gaining momentum rapidly. Have had Shane Harvey, Blair Harvey, Saul Caddy, Chris Varsamakis, Chris Hall, etc, nominate their availability. Special NFL Bushfire Appeal Jumpers to be worn.

We have several clubs who have not heard from and cannot get in contact with many of their players.

The Hurstbridge Senior Football Club President is stuck on the mountain in Kinglake. One of my Junior Development Coaches lost his house and survived only by diving into his pool. Another senior player at Montmorency (a former captain) lost everything he owns. A Whittlesea player defended his girlfriends property for 6 hours with the flames only 2 metres away at times.

These are just some of the stories.

To help support our community and all those affected by the bushfires we have developed the NFL Bushfire Appeal Day.

It will be held at the Whittlesea Showgrounds (Melway Ref:246 H7) on Sunday February 22.

SEN (1116 on the am dial) will broadcast from the day live.

The league's senior and junior clubs are all helping out, hosting stalls, conducting activities and we also plan to conduct a major raffle on the day.

A senior exhibition match will kick off at 1pm, with all Senior Clubs represented. Former AFL umpires John Russo and Peter Cameron will be the men in charge with the whistles.

We also hope to involve some celebrities and former AFL players in the contest. Stay tuned!

The 2009 Under 15 Junior Development Squad will play in the curtain raiser, starting at 11am. Harry O'Brien from the Collingwood Football Club is the guest umpire. Kangaroos skipper Brent Harvey has also committed to come along.

Entry will be a gold coin donation which will be collected by CFA volunteers.

Live music, tons of prizes, loads of give aways and heaps of celebrities will be there on the day. We will also be having a massive auction of Sports Memorabilia so bring your cheque book!

ALL PROCEEDS WILL BE DONATED TO THE BUSHFIRE RELIEF.


Hope to see everyone there on the day.
