Press Release

Footy Show Comes to Mullumbimby

Mario Fenech from the Footy Show will be in Mullumbimby filming a segment for the Channel Nine program on Monday the 29th September, 2003. Matt Rieck from the Cronulla Sharks will accompany Mario on the day with his cameraman.

The coaching clinic is the end result of being selected in the top 7 entries in the "That's My Town" competition.
It was a combined effort from the Brunswick Valley sporting community along with funds contributed from the local businesses houses who support the Giants Rugby League Football Club.

The benefits of the visit will be twofold. Whilist promoting the Brunswick Valley as an excellent holiday destination and sport oriented valley, the Mullumbimby Giants Rugby League clubs will host a training clinic conducted by Mario Fenech and Country Rugby League development officer David Parker.

The skills clinic will be held at the Mullumbimby Rugby League grounds commencing at 12.00 noon on Monday the 29th September during the school holidays. This will be open to all children, boys and girls who want a shot at fame in front of the camera. It will allow children not playing the game of Rugby League to participate and enjoy some fun (non contact) training games used by the junior coaches.

Following the clinic the Junior club will provide a free sausage sizzle, drinks and ice cream for all participants as well as an opportunity to have autographs signed and a chat with Mario.
Past coaches and players have been invited to attend and league legends such as Neil Pringle (Balmain) and Elwyn Walters (South Sydney) have indicated they may drop in for a chat with the kids.
