Victorian bushfires fundraiser - Holroyd Rangers connection

The Wyatt family, who have contributed a lot of their life to to the continuation and growth of Holroyd Rangers, are now living in Victoria - a short distance from the terrible bushfires that have destroyed villages and towns across the State.

Fortunately they were not directly hit by the fires. But the Wyatt boys are undertaking a swim-a-thon this Sunday 22nd February to raise money for the bushfire victims.

If you would like to sponsor the boys in the swim-a-thon or donate some money to their swim-a-thon please contact Vicki on 0419 608 311. Vicki is the contact person collecting donations from our area which will be sent to the swim-a-thon fundraiser, and all donations need to be arranged with Vicki before the end of the week.

Rangers players flag bearers at Matildas game

Eleven Holroyd Rangers players were flag bearers at the Matilda v Italy match on Saturday 31st January at Parramatta Stadium.

The game, a 2 all draw was very exciting with an seemingly impossible shot from Lisa De Vanna off her left foot curling into the top of the goals.

Fittingly, Cheryl Salisbury, in her last game added to the score with a penalty shot. With nearly 3000 people at the stadium the atmosphere was fantastic and no one minded the heat. After the game the players were generous with their time in signing balls, posters and shirts for the kids.
